Congratulations to our October 13th Proud Paws Calls: Misael, Riley, and Cohen! Misael was nominated for being “ALWAYS Respectful, Helpful, and Positive,” and going “above and beyond” when the class had a substitute teacher.
Riley was nominated for “consistently showing that she is a natural leader. She is extremely responsible and often reminds me of things that I may have forgotten.”
Finally, Cohen earned his nomination for being “respectful to adults and peers in the room," as well as "demonstrating leadership skills.”
All three students called home with the good news last week. Congrats!
