Our first quarter was officially completed last Friday! It seems like just yesterday that we started the new school year! Please remember that there is no school on Wednesday due to parent/teacher conferences.

The students had a full week of learning and activities. They enjoyed creating a beaded necklace early in the week, to help improve their fine motor and sorting skills.

On Thursday there was a special event called, "Sources of Strength" sponsored by TCC. The teens started the program on Wednesday and then the whole school participated in games and processing activities first thing in the morning the next day.

 At the close of the morning, the students enjoyed hearing the rap artist, "Chief Swag" share his songs about a positive image and healthy life style choices.

The teens really rallied as leaders to the younger students and played an active role in helping with the activity.

 To conclude, everyone left the gym to under a tower of "high fives" and positive energy.

A correction from last week is that the D.A.R.E. program will start on the 19th of November instead of last Friday. Have an awesome week!
