Honor Trust – show integrity and honesty
Act Responsibly – good judgement, good decisions, and be accountable
Present Professionally – uniform on properly and take pride in how your presentation
Evaluate Self – build skills to regulate and deal with emotions
This year we all will work together to focus on S.H.A.P.E. – ing up for the school year.
I truly look forward to collaborating with you and promoting literacy to enhance our Soaring Eagles.
