This is our third full week, and I feel it is going tremendously well. We are all getting settled into a routine and learning as much as we can each day! I personally have had a lot of fun interacting with the students and watching them take pride in their "caught ya" buttons. We are constantly encouraging our students to make good choices. As most parents know, teaching through example is fundamental to teaching our students the values we want to instill in them. Talking about good choices is also essential, including explaining to our students what a good decision is. A good decision is one that results in more good than harm, considers the feelings of other, is selfless, follows the rules, and is positive and beneficial. I am proud to say that we have "caught" almost 90 students being good! I am so proud of everyone’s efforts in challenging the growth of our amazing students.
I would like to remind you all that school starts at 7:45 a.m. and ends at 2:40 p.m. We have a new sign out by Coach Riley, which will let you all know if the bell has rung and if you need to come in to sign your child in because our day has already started. Thank you so much for helping us with this matter.
Our librarian Mrs. Bebout would like to remind everyone that our students are invited to participate in our Ezell-Harding Christian School “Birthday Book Program.” Parents, grandparents, and friends may purchase a book for our library in honor of a student's birthday. The student's name, birthday, and the donor's name will be inscribed inside the book, which is selected and ordered through the librarian. The birthday student has the opportunity to check out the new book first, before it is placed in general circulation. This is a wonderful way to help our library grow! We hope you all will consider allowing your child to become a lasting part of our library!
Reminder that we are currently selling City Saver books and smart cards! Our last turn in day is Monday, August 27! Thank you for helping support our school with this fundraiser!
