SENIORS:
ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL SEL CORNER
Since we have finished the new Traits of the Week for the year, now it's time to take a look back at our favorites and see what needs to be tweaked for next year! This week our K-8 students have been reflecting on a year's worth of traits and sharing with us about their favorites/which ones are most important-- so far, students have reported that honestly, collaboration and self-control are most important (although students across the building are making strong cases for the importance of many other traits too!).
If you are interested in supporting student learning around our traits, this is our full list from the year...and we will be using the same ones heading into next year too!
