Building Character��

We know how important our job is in helping your child grow, not just academically, but also emotionally and socially. We encourage student leadership in several ways during the school year. Monthly, we focus on various character traits to help build responsibility, confidence, and agency. We have a book vending machine as an incentive for students to demonstrate their kindness, respect, and responsibility. We also have brag tags that can be earned for multiple reasons and leadership opportunities both in the cafeteria and on the bus.
