Congrats to our High Flyers for this week! Way to show skills of being responsible, respectful, and safety! Our entire school is working towards a 2,500 ticket goal to earn a playground party at the end of the month! Thanks for working hard kids!
First Friday bowling was a blast at Sport Bowl!! The kids loved spending time with their classmates getting back into the swing of things for school after a long summer! So fun! Big thanks to Sport Bowl for having us back! We had a blast!
To kickoff Family time, each year we do activities outside together to build up our learning community. This year we did chalk and bubbles! Family time is a block of time we have allotted three times a week to work on social skills, social emotional learning, leadership skills, and so much more! Students are divided out that 4-5 students from each grade form a "family" with one ACE teacher. They stay with that group for the whole year! It is so fun to see the friendships formed across grade levels! We love Family time!
We are excited that Life Church is once again partnering with Jane Addams to provide opportunities throughout the year to spoil our staff with yummy food at our staff meetings and other acts of kindness to our school! Thank you for your generosity!
Each week, students can earn tickets through our PBIS behavior management system for demonstrating behavior that is responsible, respectful, and safe. Here is our first week of High Flyers! Way to go! We are proud of you!
