🧩WE'RE ALL ONE PIECE OF A LARGE PUZZLE🧩 While preparing for the new school year, staff at Felix A. Williams Elementary School worked on being able to see and celebrate the best in themselves and considered how they were important pieces of a puzzle. As they saw their pieces come together, they realized that there are so many skills and strengths they have nearby to lean on. Whether you're a corner piece or the very last one finalizing the puzzle, remember that we ALL are here on purpose, for a purpose. #ALLINMartin👊 #PublicSchoolProud
