🧡💙 PBIS POP-UP: ACTS OF KINDNESS! 💙🧡

Today, our Jaguars were celebrated for something that makes our school community stronger—kindness! 🐾✨

Our PBIS team popped up to recognize students who were caught showing Acts of Kindness and reminding us that even the smallest gesture can make a BIG difference.

We are proud of our Jaguars for choosing kindness, supporting one another, and showing what it truly means to ROAR! 🐾

Keep spreading kindness, Jaguars! 💙🧡

🇺🇸 Remembering the Heroes of 9/11 🇺🇸 Mrs. Koehler’s students took time to reflect, remember, and honor the courage, sacrifice, and service shown on September 11, 2001. Through a meaningful paper-chain activity, each student added an act of courage or kindness—creating a powerful reminder that small acts can make a big difference when we come together. ❤️ We Remember. We Honor. We Serve. Never Forget. 🇺🇸🐾
