THE VOYAGE - HUMILITY
In March we will encourage and celebrate HUMILITY.
HUMILITY is thinking of others first. This week's Action Point: PUTTING OTHERS BEFORE YOURSELF.
Expectations: Use resources as you see fit (linked below or through Voyage portal). Target talk and recognize times when you see students exhibiting honesty.
