The month of January is known for a global initiative called the Great Kindness Challenge which calls on families and students to support kindness, social-emotional well-being, and the avoidance of bullying. Be kind!
We want to commend our students for maintaining their focus over the holiday break and continuing to work on and finish a large number of their assignments.
Welcome back students and staff to a fantastic new year and a successful second semester!
