Warriors, It has been a great first week! There is a lot of information about upcoming events and activities in this week’s newsletter. One activity that will be resuming is the Morning Mile! I do have one reminder about after-school pick up. If you are a parent picking up your child after school and have to get out of your vehicle to buckle your child into their seatbelt, please pull into one of the visitor parking spots to buckle your child in. This will speed up our pick up line for everyone waiting. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cWzj0Rg4yvli2Xh5l88AiifC5YeWE-gZQgYFNRgOT5E/edit?usp=sharing Have a great weekend!

Who will be the first student to earn a ticket for good behavior this year? Our Big Blue Jug is empty. As part of our PBIS program, students can not only earn prizes from their classroom teachers by earning tickets for good behavior, but as a building they will attempt to fill up the Big Blue Jug. If our Warriors succeed by being good, they will be rewarded with a day of bowling at Shawnee Lanes. Once the jug is filled up, it will be emptied and they can begin refilling it to try to earn another big reward.
