September Success:
In the blink of an eye, September has ended and we prepare now for the month of October.
This month has been full of positive energy, friendships, learning and growing!
We kicked off our first Wellness Wednesday with our September Panther Pride Event including guest staff teaching PAWSercise: Miss Mackey; Meditation: Mr. Whalen; and Line Dancing: Mrs. Ellison.
We completed many Safety Drills: fire drills at various times of the day including lunch, and our first Lock Down Drill. We will be completing a few more fire drills while the weather is welcoming and a hold in place drill too.
While fire drills are unannounced our hold in place and lock down drills are announced and explained over the PA system by Mr. Coffin.
Thank-you to the Wellness Committee, PE Teacher Liz White, and classroom teachers for planning our nature walks and hikes to various local ranges. We are proud of our kiddos for stepping out of their comfort zone and enjoy mindful moments in nature with students and staff.
We welcomed two new members to our Panther's Office Staff: Kinderly DaFoe and Samantha Fiacco; these ladies will be integral in supporting CSE and our Extra Curricular clubs and events. If you hear a new voice on the phone, please welcome them!
