After School Club - Rubik's Cube | 799.5 KB |
PJHS Parents,
As I consider our school culture and the values we practice, I think of the song lyrics from Accentuate the Positive, sung by many artists in the 1940s through the 1970s, that state, “You’ve got to accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative and latch on to the affirmative. Don’t mess with Mr. In-Between”. We want our children to be confident, resolute, and practical when it comes to making character based and other decisions. We all want our children to critically think through their choices and actions. Have you ever “messed with Mr. In-Between” by not completely thinking through a problem? We all have, but we don’t want to lose focus on what is important. How do we do that? We follow humanly universal values that can help us to build our confidence to do what is right, even when no one is looking.
GRIZZLY GROWLS
Parent Teacher Conferences

Also, if you are willing and able to help with the teacher dinner tomorrow afternoon, please follow the link to volunteer to bring a small item. Our teachers appreciate your donation and the kindness behind it.
