GOOD CITIZENSHIP PROGRAM

This program has been added as an effort to better teach self-discipline, right from wrong and the fundamentals of good manners. Each week's theme builds upon this goal.
Each month at our student assemblies, the citizenship and academic achievements of our students will be highlighted. Our "Student Stars" will set an important tone for our school and will assist us in increasing overall student motivation and student accomplishments. It is our conviction that our academic outcomes will be positively affected as a result of this program.
