Early Release Today
Happy Birthday to everyone who celebrated over the long weekend, and Happy Birthday today to: Korbin Forthofer and Mason Hamlin
Attention Staff and Students! Students, please remember to deposit your LEAD tickets in the grade level bin located in the cafeteria. Teachers don't forget to sign them so that you have a chance to win a prize too! Starting at the end of the month, there will be a prize for the student in each grade level who has received the most Lead Tickets.
Today, our school-wide Movement Challenge starts. Movement breaks help students recharge, improve their focus, and prepare to learn. Throughout this competition, classes will be encouraged to take short movement breaks during the day to support both physical and mental wellness. Every time a movement break occurs, a sticker will be placed on your grade level poster that are in the hallways. The Grade level with the most stickers after January 30th will receive an award. Let’s see who can move the most, stay engaged, and bring the best energy. Game on!
