Note from the Principal:
Dear Staff,
I heard a cool idea at an I&RS meeting today. The teacher has students pick sticks in the morning to identify another student. Then he/she has to report out at the end of the day something GOOD that that studnet did that day.
What a powerful lesson. If we are looking for good around our school and in our classrooms/offices we will find it 100% of the time.
Let's work to stay positive and to find the good that is out there.
Keep it up! Happy Friday.
Sincerely,
Chris
