This school year, our Bulldogs will be learning all about the 6 Pillars of Character! These include: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship. Each month, we will focus on a specific trait and recognize students that are showing the trait with a special assembly. Let’s make it a great year building strong Bulldog character! 💪🏼🧱🏗️🧡🔧🚧
