Here are the pictures from 4th grade's community meeting. They talked about how to correctly use stop walk talk. They also talked about how no means no and stop means stop whether it comes from a peer or from an adult. They were also given awards for students who have been doing a great job on iready. They got certificates for passing 10 lessons and a couple of students even got certificates for passing 20 lessons.😄



1st grade had their community meeting on hallway expectations.👍

Our 3rd grade students held a community meeting on respect. They created an anchor chart to describe what respect looks, feels, and sounds like. Two students from each class won a respectful bear award!😁👏
