Mindset of the Day: Passion First (Take a Stand) https://7mindsets.us15.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ae61821eca72d3461505ad051&id=7e42f93d38&e=5f99b25c37 Thought: Adrianna Kenebrew is legally blind, but you wouldn't know it if you watched her compete in her favorite sport, gymnastics. In the video below, you will see her overcome many obstacles to pursue her passion. It may seem as though your passion has been “put on hold” during the current crisis. However, it is important to look for ways to pursue your passions and explore your interests. Take a stand, embrace creativity, and continue to do the things you love.

The elementary campus will focus on giving students the opportunity to catch up on the previous learning packets distributed. It is critical that students complete and return those assignments to ensure that teachers can evaluate student progress and performance. Option and enrichment learning opportunities will be available on the district website. Please check with your child’s teacher about any work your child may be missing. Completed work can be returned to the elementary campus daily from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. For questions or concerns, please call 254-546-1225.

Athletes, Coach James will be available to distribute resistance bands and jump ropes for athletes to support conditioning during closure.
