Going Above and Beyond In Learning and Serving
| | |
A Note From Mrs. Hibler:
We are noticing a lot of our kiddos struggling with their behaviors and moods in the mornings, especially on Mondays (we all do). Remember that a good night's sleep, breakfast, and steady routine can help relieve some of the morning blues and conduct concerns.
It is officially half way through the first quarter; interims are coming home tomorrow for students in grades 6-8 with for any letter grade C- or lower and at the discretion of any teacher for students in grades K-5. These must be signed and returned no later than Wednesday, October 8th.
Please keep our 8th grade students and staff traveling to Washington D.C. in your prayers. They will be leaving not-so-bright but early on Monday!
