"Achieving Our Dreams through Education"
I hope everyone has a good time during MEA days and finds something useful.
I have also included our School's 4 Expectations below, thanks to Mr. Realbird. Please learn them and teach them to your students. The first word has been adjusted this year to reflect a clearer and easier way to say "Be Safe." New posters have also been made and will be distributed once they are laminated.
