A Message from the Principal
Lauren Meeks, Maggie Jistel, & Erin Uhlaender
Mustang Pride!
Welcome back, and Happy New Year!
We have had a great start to the new year with your children!
On Monday, our staff read a book called, One Word for Kids by Jon Gordon, Dan Britton, and Jimmy Page. We asked our staff to think of one word that could serve as an anchor for the remainder of the school year. The words were so inspiring!
Many teachers have talked about one word with their classes, as well! The words your children have come up with are very powerful...we have been so impressed! Some examples are: brave, caring, love, focus, & confidence.
Below you can find a video recording of the book One Word for Kids. Be sure to ask your children about their One Word!
We are so excited to serve you and your family this new year!
Lauren, Maggie, & Erin
