This week we wrapped up our five hours of mental health lessons. Our last hour this week focused on such topics as internet safety and ensuring our Jets had self-care plans. As we enter into March we have some busy weeks ahead of Spring Break. We will start the week on a modified bell schedule for our Legacy Writes #2. This week we also start our quarter three progress monitoring activities (PMAs).
Let’s make it a great week Jets!

Jackie Joyner-Kersee On Excellence
For me it's the challenge — the challenge to try to beat myself or do better than I did in the past. I try to keep in mind not what I have accomplished but what I have to try to accomplish in the future.
