Congratulations to our students who received Student of the Month for August!

Today, students were recognized for showing the character trait of kindness in our school! We know so many of our Jets show kindness in our school each day, and we loved getting to celebrate those who stand out as a leader in showing kindness in our school!

Our family meeting also consisted of celebrating different achievements across our school this month, and learning a new breathing strategy and affirmation from Mrs. Seidl!
