 Expect Respect will be selling #tonystrong black and red
silicone bracelets for the Oct. 8 EF/SA game starting Oct. 5.
 Tony Cook was the Vice President of Expect Respect and
has always inspired us all to be kinder, better humans and
  to truly come together as a community. Since EF made
  camo game shirts in blue and gold, it would only make
      sense for SA to sell bracelets in red and black!
The bracelets will be sold in school for $3. There will also
   be an Expect Respect table at the Oct. 8 game where
bracelets will be available for purchase. Proceeds will go to
                      the Cook Family.

                        THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT IN FIFTH GRADE

Fifth grade students spent time working on
 their writing skills by developing a three
paragraph “Portrait of a Gladiator” essay.
They reflected upon past accomplishments
 and set goals for the future. Additionally,
  students identified the steps needed to
achieve those goals. Be on the lookout! We
      have future archaeologists, nurse
  practitioners, military men and women,
 entrepreneurs, and teachers amongst us!
