We are always trying to talk about college with students. We have student high school graduation years posted outside of every classroom. Tuesday will be a fun day as students wear their favorite college shirts. If students don't have a shirt to wear, we can help make a note/tag to pin on their shirt. Let us know in the office.

The Title 1 family night activity is a mix of math games, Pre/k and Kindergarten STEM activities, and leadership.

We always have a great turn out of families for Thanksgiving lunch. The menu looks great.

Here are pictures from this week. Students had several opportunities to practice speaking and listening skills, and find their voice:

Pictures This Week

Here is a great thought as we start the week. There really is no time for negativity. Life is too short to focus on negatives. Look for positive things to talk about, and surround yourself with positive people. Students listen to what we say. Do we want students hearing negative comments, or positive comments? They often hear plenty of negatives at home. Be the person who they hear uplifting and positive comments from, and the school where they hear hope and possibilities:
