We are still celebrating all that Native American Heritage month has to offer!
Did you know?
We owe lots of things to Native innovation
Things that we might take for granted, like rubber, corn, kayaks, modern-day farming and even mouthwash, all find their roots in Native American design. Click here to learn more: https://rb.gy/csex8y

As we begin a new week let's take a moment to reflect and begin to think about what areas we have an opportunity to grow. Success has many different meanings to many different people. What do you think of this one and is there a way you can implement it your life this week?

E mbrace the challenge
S tay on track
S how the world you can do it!

The purpose of this holiday is to shine a spotlight on the positive deeds in the community and the thread of kindness that binds all of us to one another. Kindness is essential and one of the most primal parts of the human soul and is capable of bridging the gaps that divide us by race, religion, gender, location, or politics. Be kind today and everyday!

PBL POWER!
Collaboration is one of MANY ways it can better prepare our kids with life skills that set them up for future success.
Relationships formed during collaboration is a huge part of the process. Not only do students learn how to work better in groups, providing their own input, listening to others, and resolving conflicts when they arise but they also build positive relationships with teachers, which reinforces how great learning is. Students also form relationships with community members when working on projects, gaining insight for careers and beyond.
