Yesterday, our 1st Grade classes shared with us the virtue of the month, courage. Using the tale of David and Goliath, they showed our Sparks how courage and faith in God will always lead us to victory! They shared many ways to show courage everyday, including going into dark rooms, standing up for a friend who is being picked on, and even jumping off the high dive! They also shared a special prayer for courage that our students can pray all month:
 

Recess Helpers
With our unstructured approach to recess, and as our school continues to grow, it would be wonderful to have more pairs of hands to help us both monitor and form our students. Parent volunteers are more than welcome to provide additional support!

Will you help us by volunteering to monitor recess one period a week? If you’re interested, please sign up HERE. And, as always, feel free to email Mr. Boville with any questions.
