 Thanks to the Party Committee who planned today's party!

Students rotated between four different stations

and then played games as a whole class.

What a fun way to end the week!

P.O.O.F!

   Every other Friday, students will have the chance to reflect on the past week by completing a POOF (Positive Observations on Friday) page.

We shared our observations in class, and now students have been asked to share their page with someone at home.

Happy Friday!
