Mindfulness Moment
The month of March is dedicated to organization. We are practicing mindfulness when we dedicate time to organization and planning. When our environment is decluttered and our minds are clear, we are capable of completing anything we set our minds to.
“With organization comes empowerment.”
Empower yourself each day by staying organized and eliminating clutter. You will feel in control and ready to take on the day!
Chromebook Tip of the Week!
Chromebooks must remain free of any writing, drawing, stickers, or labels. You may only have a small piece of painter tape with your first and last name written on it. If you need a piece of painter's tape, ask your history teacher or stop by the library.
