Hello and Welcome to the 2019 – 2020 School Year!

As you may know Anthem teaches to the whole child by helping each child develop both their academic and communication skills. We believe success requires more than just our intellectual ability, it also requires strong social-emotional and communication skills.

In order to create successful, caring leaders, students need opportunities to practice being a leader and help others!

This year at Anthem, we are looking forward to providing even more leadership opportunities for our students. We will now have EQ Ambassadors on campus. EQ Ambassadors help build a positive community and create a caring environment on campus, without interfering with the student’s academic development.

Like last year, we will continue to highlight a motto each week and we will post the weekly motto right here and provide insights you can use at home with your child. By working together, we bring the best of all of us to our students.

Thank you for helping us create a positive school community!

Here’s to a fantastic school year,

Danna Evans
