Black History Month:  Jesse Owens was a track and field star. His most famous moment came in the 1936 Olympics when he won four gold medals – much to the annoyance of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party who hoped the Olympics would be a showcase for Aryan supremacy. In his later life, Jesse Owens became a goodwill ambassador for America and athletics. He said, “The battles that count aren’t the ones for gold medals. The struggles within yourself — the invisible, inevitable battles inside all of us — that’s where it’s at.”

 

Quote of the Week:  Deals with online safety.

Before you post, THINK! 

T is for true – is it true?

H is for helpful – is your post helpful or hurtful?

I is for inspiring – will it inspire others in a positive way?

N is for necessary – do you really need to post it?

K is for kind – does it show kindness for others?

 

Safety:  That’s why it’s important that every day you use your common sense and self-control to keep our school free of harmful or damaging behaviors.
