Week of 11.11.19
Hello Brave Community!
Happy Monday Evening! To our Veterans, THANK YOU for your service!
Happy Veterans Day!
As a Leader in Me campus, we highlight one of the Seven
Habits of Highly Effective People each week. Our habit of the month this month is Habit 2:
Begin with the End in Mind! We teach
and model for our students how to plan ahead and set goals. We emphasize the importance of being
prepared.
Word of the Week
(WOW):
This week’s word is “ADVERSITY”. It is a noun that means problems or
difficulties. Partner with us in
focusing on our campus WOW. Ask your
student to use the word in a sentence or perhaps you could be very intentional
in your use of our word. Thanks for your
participation!
