Northstar Guidance
Northstar guidance classes are just finishing up our growth mindset unit. We spent last week making classroom paper chains with growth mindset statements on them to serve as reminders to use our Bubble Gum Brains.
We'll be moving on to focus on healthy lifestyle choices next. Classes will be learning about nutrition, exercise, and how to stay away from unhealthy substances.

Students were invited to raise money for the American Heart Association by getting donations for red t-shirts that would be worn to participate in after school activities including volleyball, 3 on 3 basketball, and dodgeball. Each activity ended with a single elimination tournament where champions were crowned each day. KMS was able to raise $1,270 this year for the American Heart Association.
