Voyager: Week 6: Oct 5th, 2018

10/5/2018

 

PRINCIPAL LOGAN’S NOTE

Congratulations to the first recipients of our Valiant Voyagers Awards! On Friday, Sept. 28th, the children were presented with a certificate during morning assembly and recognized for their Positive Mindset, one of our six Student 360 dispositions. We’re so proud of them and the radiating effect they have on our community! Encourage Positive Mindset in your household with practicing daily gratitudes.
