THE VOYAGE 
It was a great first week on The Voyage learning all about respect. We hope that you are seeing this character trait grow in your home! Remember our anchor for this month? "Respect is showing consideration for yourself, others, and the world around you." We have seen students use respect in the classroom, and it is encouraging to see them grow! Here's our action point for this week: "Respect is being OK with others who are different from you." We want our students to know that they can show respect to everyone.  
Special thanks to PTA Platinum Level Sponsors
