12 Days of GRITmas...Continued
This week, the GRITmas tree really filled up with ornaments of challenges! The Integrity challenges, taking place from Thursday through Monday, are Operation Santa Claus (bring an unwrapped toy for a child in need), organize your bedroom or your backpack without being asked, and go without your phone (other than parent contact) for 24 hours. These challenges can be done over the weekend too!
Our 12 Days of GRITmas will conclude next week with 3 days of Tenacity on Tuesday-Thursday. Students can challenge themselves to study for 30 extra minutes on a subject that needs more attention or make up any zeros they may have. They can also participate in Spirit Week by dressing up for one or more of the days. The final Tenacity challenge is to say hello to at least 10 students you do not know. Let's finish GRITmas by creating lots of cheer!
