A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A PANTHER

Golden Panthers

For the last few weeks of school, the Golden Panther Award will be handed out to classes that best exemplifies the behaviors that we want to celebrate: being learning ready, attentive, helpful, kind, safe, and on task. The panther recognizes students who consistently make positive choices, support one another, and create a classroom environment where everyone can thrive. Classes that receive the panther set the standard for what it means to be respectful, responsible, and ready to learn—earning the pride of the entire school community! 🐾

This award was given to Ms. Yost's class this week.

Importance of Reading

Please encourage your child to read - there is no such thing as a child that hates reading. There are children who love reading and those that are reading the wrong books. Let's help students find the right book!
