It’s been a great first week with my AWESOME fourth graders! They work hard and want to learn. I’m impressed with their desire to be a part of a learning community! We have instituted “Behavior Bucks”. Whenever I see students taking responsibility for themselves and their learning, they get a “Behavior Buck”. These will be good for treats at our school store on Fridays. I have seen these kids show compassion to each other when someone drops a pencil box and several students help out. I have seen a lot of care given to Mrs. Wert’s Pre-K class as we walk them to the bus. Everyone cares about the students who are absent and also about helping their next door neighbor who might not understand a concept. Wow! It’s great to be a part of this here at school! Keep up the good work guys!! Love, Mrs. Q
