During the months of August and September, students examine what course they will take to become better citizens. Robert Long, now know as Robert William Baffle, was the guest speaker at our opening assembly in September. His presentation was entitled "Bye-Bye-Bully". The 3rd grade classroom activity gave students the opportunity to place their hand print on our hallway wall. All new students and faculty members were included in the activity. 4th and 5th graders participated in Captain’s Coming and reviewed the character traits. Thanks to Mrs. Tobias and Mrs. Boroughs for August Character Education bulletin board. Mrs. Feldman and Mrs. McGuire were in charge of decorating the Character Education bulletin board for September.The tentative schedule is listed below.
