Last week the students wrote New Year’s Resolutions. they focused on ways that they would like to improve as students and new things we can do to improve our classroom environment. They did such a thoughtful job we made a hallway display out of their projects. It’s important for kids to know that there is always room for individual growth and improvement. I will work with each of them to help them achieve their goals for 2020!
