📣 Attention Staff and Students! 🎉 Get ready to bring your creativity to life—it's time for our End-of-Year Door Decorating Contest! ✨🚪As we wrap up another fantastic school year, let’s celebrate with color, creativity, and school spirit. Door Decorating started last week and continues through next Wednesday. All 1st hour classes are invited to decorate their doors with a theme that reflects the joy, memories, and accomplishments of this year, or the excitement for summer. Happy decorating!
Advisory Teachers: Hopefully, you enjoyed chapter twenty-three of our “One Book, One School” Restart. Today's question is: Chase’s journey of rediscovering who he is and how his actions affect those around him is a powerful reminder that our choices can deeply influence people, even if we don’t always realize it. How can I be more aware of the impact my actions have on others and show kindness, even when I’m unsure of the right thing to do? (Please read Chapter 24 for tomorrow.)
