Congratulations to the Citizen of the Month Award winners for March...
Ameena M.
Saira S.
Kate X.

These students were awarded for their continuous display of citizenship. Citizenship is understanding, appreciating, and practicing positive actions that help make your school, community, and the world a better place.
Thank you to everyone who attended the ceremony this morning!
April's trait will focus on trustworthiness; the ability to be relied on as honest and truthful.
All Citizen of the Month Awards are formal dress days.
