Social Intelligence

Social Intelligence
Social Intelligence is this week's character strength focus. Social intelligence means you are aware of other people's thoughts and feelings; you understand why they do things. Socially intelligent people might be described as insightful, understanding, empathetic, and aware. For more about social intelligence, click here.

Shout-Out!
I'd like to give a shout-out to the third grade team for creating this bulletin board that is currently hanging in the front lobby. Anyone in the building is encouraged to give a shout-out to a student or a staff member. This is a great way to show our appreciation for others!

Half-Day
As a reminder, Wednesday is a half-day of school with an 11:30 dismissal. The door will be open for student pick-up at 11:15. The staff will spend the afternoon involved in a variety of wellness activities.

Education Fair
The Education Fair is just two weeks away! Once students complete their project packet, they can stop in the office to pick up a display board, courtesy of the PTA. Completed display boards can be dropped off on Monday, 3/23 from 3:30 to 5:00 pm, or on Tuesday, 3/24 from 7:30 - 8:30 am. Students will visit the fair during the day and families are invited to come between 6:30 and 7:30 pm.
