The Kindness Squad made its debut at LaPerche today. Members of the squad greeted students and families who arrived by car and bus. The music was playing, the students were shouting greetings, and kindness was being spread. What a way to start the day. Thank you third grade Kindness Squad!

Busy week @ SHS counseling office. Students learned about early college enrollment courses they can take in high school, college admissions counselors are meeting with interested students, & Mr. Jackson provided tips on high school success to 9th graders. Great opportunities!
