🎉 Our first Positive Referrals run was a success! Students who went above and beyond were rewarded with a treat, a spin of the wheel, and a spot on the Principal’s 100 Board!

Once we fill the first row, an even BIGGER treat is coming! 👀

Way to go, Raiders!

To veteran teachers who have stories to tell 🫶🏾📚
Different generations. Different eras.
Same mission = Making a difference
