Last Thursday students were able to celebrate Next Level Day!
Next Level Day is a celebration for students who were able to take their behavior and grades to the 'next level' during 1st quarter. Students who met the requirements were able to participate in some fun pumpkin related activities.
A special thanks to all of our helpers -- high school students & staff, cafeteria workers, paraprofessionals, and teachers. Shout out to everyone who jumped in to help our Lions carve or paint pumpkins! Thanks to everyone who helped serve ice cream in the cafeteria. We appreciate all of your extra work!
But most of all, thanks to all of the Lions who were able to join us for Next Level Day! Your behavior & academics were outstanding during 1st quarter. We are so proud of you!
