          With the new year came a new office location. I am now located in the former room 7.

Also a new year, a new adventure! This year we are integrating a new Character Ed Program. We are striving to become our "Personal Best".   Each month we will work on one or two new character traits that correspond with our assignment books. We are building the "Pyramid of Sucess", that was created by Coach John Wooden. He is a coach and teacher who helped many people along their journey to success. Coach Wooden wants everyone to become his or her personal best.  Let the journey begin!.

 

In September we will be working on Hard Work & Enthusiasm.

December – Self-Control
