Good morning everyone, today is Wednesday, December 17, 2025 and today is a cycle A Day.
PROPER USE OF SCHOOL RESTROOMS – Students are reminded that our school restrooms are
shared facilities that should be treated with respect and care. Please remember the following expectations:
- Use restrooms appropriately. Restrooms are intended for their designated purpose only.
- Do not write on walls, stalls, or fixtures. Graffiti, vandalism, or any form of damage to school property is unacceptable and may result in disciplinary action.
- Maintain cleanliness. Dispose of trash properly, flush toilets after use, and wash your hands before leaving.
- Show respect for others. Keep restrooms a safe, clean, and comfortable space for everyone in our school community.
By following these guidelines, we demonstrate respect for our school, our peers, and ourselves. Thank you for helping maintain a positive and respectful environment.
DECEMBER CHARACTER TRAIT – Our character focus this week is Empathy. Empathy means trying to understand how someone else is feeling, even if their experience is different from yours. Before reacting, pause and imagine how you might feel in their situation. Empathy builds stronger friendships and helps us make better choices. Take time this week to listen with an open mind and treat others the way you’d want to be treated.
YEARBOOK CLUB – The yearbook staff will meet in the library after school today, December 17.
HOLIDAY BOOK SWAP – The Library Holiday Book Swap is ending soon. Bring in a book from home to exchange for a new one by Friday. Happy Holiday Reading!
