We are back for the 19-20 school year and I couldn't be more excited! I'm so happy with the group of 8th graders who have stepped up as leaders this week, and the 7th graders who are such positive additions to our advising.
For the last three days, we have been getting to know each other in a lot of different ways! From name games, to team building challenges, to duck-duck-goose, we are learning to work and play together and have a great time doing it! Yesterday, they built their schedules, so be on the lookout for those to sign over the weekend. Next week is going to be a really fun week! On Monday, foundations students will go to Bear Creek Lake to do some further group building and water sports. This is our first community day, and it will allow kids to play in the water since they won't be able to do so on our camping trip. Tuesday we will do some preparation for our beginnings trip by setting goals and talking about any fears and anxieties that might be coming up about being away from home for three days. And finally, we have our beginnings trip! Please make sure you have a packing list for the trip, as it's super important that everyone has their needs met to be comfortable and safe. Ask your students about all the happenings this week, and hopefully they had as much fun as I did!
