TENACITY - This is going to be our Habit of Mind focus from now until the December break. We'll be talking with students about what TENACITY means, how are we TENACIOUS in our work or play or a project. Ask your student sometime what they're learning about TENACITY.

ARRIVING ON TIME - Please remember to arrive on time to school each morning. It is important for ALL classes, from pre-school through Purple Door, that students arrive at the beginning of th class time. Or better yet, a little early! It helps with their adjustment and transition for the day and doesn't interrupt the teachers important teaching time. We appreciate everyone's being a part of the important work that happens here at School.

Have a wonderful weekend and we hope to see EVERYONE out in the COLORS tomorrow for the parade!!!
