Another Schedule Change . . . ?
Yes, but there are not as many changes as you would think. We tried a different way of approaching our Focus Classes and to be honest, it didn’t work as well as we liked. So, we are adjusting.

This unit we talked about Respect.
What is respect? It kind of hard to define, so for us it means;
“Being thankful for the people in our lives and also being thankful for the things they do for us.”
This week we will be Reviewing the 3 areas of Respect!
*** Respecting those in Authority – Being a First Time Listener ***
*** Respecting your Peers – The Golden Rule ***
*** Respecting Yourself – giving 100 % Effort in everything you do ***
Focus of the Week!
This week we will be learn about the effects of Bullying.
What to do if you see it happening, how to avoid it and what to do if can’t avoid it.
We look forward to seeing you all in classes this week! So get in here and get your reps in!
