Student of the Week 

Please send a 3 x 5 or a 4 x 6 current photo of your child on the first day of school.  We want students to “shine” brightly in our “Student of the Week” project.  Each week, a member of the class will be chosen based on improvement in work, social skills, citizenship, participation or behavior.  Every student will have the opportunity to become Student of the Week more than one time. This project will provide positive feedback and promote self-confidence in each student as he/she accomplishes goals throughout the year.
