Welcome Back!
We would like to welcome you back to another school year! School is off to a great start and we have an amazing group of kids this year. We are excited to see what the year brings! Our fifth graders had a fun day of painting rocks to join our school tree. Last year, we started the school tree which represents that there is only one you in the world and to accept and appreciate the differences of other people.

Our motivation for our school tree.
#bethebestyou
#bethebestyou
This year, our school motto is #bethebestyou. We want students to accept themselves for who they are and realize we are in this together. To represent our idea and theme, students were given a quarter of a circle and decorated the paper to represent themselves. Once all circles where completed, we created a banner that will be displayed in the cafeteria. The banner shows that individually we have special talents and features, but when we work together, we create a beautiful piece and we need everyone to make the puzzle complete. We want students to work hard to be the best "you", they can be because they are the reason we are here and only they can make this an amazing year.
