Smencils have found their way to R-PTLE! These are all a huge hit with students. They cost $1 and will be available to purchase in the office during lunchtimes. I must say, they are very cool and have a variety of different scents. And, when I say they are a huge hit - I mean the students just can't get enough of them!!!😃😃

This Month's Theme is Teamwork! We are Better Together!
What does it mean to have Teamwork?
Teamwork is the ability to work in unity with others towards a common goal. For us to learn how to become team players, it is important that we learn to listen, encourage our peers, and allow and invite others to contribute their talents and skills.
We are better together! When we engage in true teamwork and lean on each other for shared knowledge and experiences, we learn more and can achieve more! team spirit at R-PTLE. I have felt it from day one. Let's focus on being a great teammate this month!
