Happy Friday~
Happy Friday!
We had so much fun with our Great Kindness Challenge Spirit Week. Please follow us on Instagram and Twitter to see the photos.
We are going to rebrand our logo. The first step to this process is to determine whether we want to keep our current mascot or change it. Currently there are 2 lions in the district, so we would love to have a distinct logo. Also, there is a red tailed hawk that lives between our trees. So we thought being hawks would be natural. However, rebranding is a big project and we want to hear your voice. Please share your opinion.
We continue to focus on the IB Learner Profile Knowledgeable.
The IB Learner profile aims to develop students who are knowledgeable. Students who are knowledgeable explore concepts, ideas and issues that have local and global significance. In doing so, they acquire in-depth knowledge and develop understanding across a broad and balanced range of disciplines.
