The 12 Days of GRITmas
The office will host a GRITmas tree and once students have completed at least one of the challenges for a value, they can come and write their accomplishment on an ornament to hang on the tree. Some of the challenges will be during school and some will be at home or in the community. If you catch your child showing GRIT, you can tag them on our Instagram with #12DaysofGRITmas. We hope to fill our tree with so much GRIT that you cannot even see the branches!
Here is a sneak peak at the first three challenges of Gratitude on December 5-7:
1) Historical Costume Closet give-back - do you remember the Wax Museum project or the Walk through the Revolution from elementary? Are those costumes still sitting in your closet? We would love for you to show GRATITUDE and giving by bringing them and donating them to Smith Elementary. We will have bins in the office for you to drop off the Martha Washington's and Abe Lincoln's that no longer fit! Please place in a bag and tag your bag with your name and the name of the costume.
2) Purchase Holiday Grams from ASB to show someone they are special to you. Write them a note of thanks on the grams and they will be delivered by ASB the following week!
3) Give a thoughtful compliment to at least two people you do not know.
We hope to have all our Jr. Oilers celebrate the holiday season by showing GRIT and doing great things at school and in the community. Stay tuned for Days 4-12!
