Camp funds due Friday
This week our school community will be focusing on the Other People Mindset (OPM) of Being Present and Giving Others My Attention. This means when I’m with other people, I’m present and give them my full attention. This element of the Other People Mindset is so important today due to the increasing number of distractions vying for our time and attention. Phone calls, text messages, emails, social media notifications all have the dangerous capacity to pull us away from the present moment and, what’s most important -- our relationships with other people.

Starting on Monday, September 18th our 6th graders will begin selling candy bars in the hallways. Please remember to bring small bills--nothing larger than a $5 so we can quickly make change.
