This weeks' Owl-Standing winners look excited to be recognized on live announcements! These students were given tickets throughout the week by staff members who observed them following the Acacia Way! 🌻👍🏼
They each received a "smencil" and each parent received a congratulation note for having a child who followed the Acacia Way!
We LOVE to celebrate, so look for more winners soon!🎉

Let's celebrate our first round of Acacia Way To Go Winners! These students received an "Owlstanding ticket" sometime during the past week from a staff member for following the Acacia Way! Winners were drawn on live announcements and each child chose a "squishie" to take home! Students who are not chosen are put in our "second chance" tub for a chance to win later in the year!

So proud of them all!🥰
