💛💙🦅 Connecting, Learning, and SOARing Together!

Morningside staff connected with fellow SCCSD educators across the district this past week to reflect on and strengthen our shared commitment to connection, relationships, and restorative practices.

Throughout the year, we’ll continue building on our established practices through ongoing learning, reflection, and application—strengthening a school community where every Eagle feels welcomed, valued, cared for, and connected!
