Student Leadership Team Work
Recess Leaders
The recess leaders help to think win win. They also help to play fare. My friend Gabe is also on this team if you see him and you don’t know what to do he would be a nice person to talk to.

Celebrating Diversity
This Team focuses on learning about other countries and cultures. This team will look at festival items, make crafts, watch videos, and read books from around the world. Guest speakers from other countries will visit to share facts about different cultures. Most importantly this team will learn about how we are different.

Spirit Squad
The Spirit Squad welcomes people to the school on Wednesday. They also encourage people to succeed in their goals in not only school but in life too. The Spirit Squad chants the student mission statement during assemblies. The team helps congratulate others on their successes. This team practices in the music room with Mrs. Duncan. One very important thing is they sing a song that’s about the 7 habits and have taught everyone at Pathfinder how to sing the song too! We have learned we can't stomp our feet.

Library Leaders
Library Leaders help organize books and help recommend books to students. They help setup for book fairs. This team works together to promote the library and reading. They synergize to help the library stay clean and organized. The teachers in library leaders are Mrs. Milne and Mrs. McCollum. This is a good leadership team because they help the library with book fairs organizing and so much more. Pathfinder please try your hardest to keep the library clean and keep READING!!!!

Leadership Socials
The reason we have Leadership Socials is because we have quality students that we vote for every month in our classrooms. We vote for them because they have been respectful to their peers and teachers. They have been doing their work and have been a leader.
At the October Leadership Social, the quality students saw a firetruck and got a lot of snacks. If you get chosen as a quality student you get to go to the lunch room and celebrate with other quality students. Quality students get chosen because they follow the 7 habits.

Pathfinder food drive helped our families in need. Donating food helps people that are hungry. Thank you for donating to the Pathfinder food drive! The Student Lighthouse Team was in charge of the food drive. Look what we collected as a school.
Keep it up Pathfinder!!!!!
