"RESPECT" free dress on Friday, Nov. 30th
The Character Counts theme for the month of November was "RESPECT." The teachers did a fabulous job integrating this pillar into their lessons. I saw numerous lessons where respect was included in the writing assignments. Respect was discussed during several lectures involving literature and history. A few of the classes learned songs about respect. This pillar was also a part of all conversations I had with students who came to visit me because of behavior issues. I am extremely proud of how this entire campus is responding to this program. To show my appreciation, I am giving all faculty, staff and students a "RESPECT FREE DRESS" on Friday, November 30th. Everyone should wear yellow or gold to show respect for RESPECT! Thank you!

Thanksgiving is a time to pause and think about all of the things we are thankful for in our lives. I am extremely thankful for a loving family, caring friends and an exciting job. During this 4-day weekend, I hope all of you have an opportunity to get some rest, have some fun and eat lots of great food. Happy Thanksgiving!
