It’s a PBIS week so we have reminders every day of how to be our absolute best, respectful and responsible.
We’re on the last leg of the school year but it is no time to stop giving it your all! It’s more important than ever to finish out strong. Be to class on time with everything that you need. Get your work done in class so that you don’t start the avalanche of missing assignments that can be so difficult to burrow out of. You’ve got this Peeps!
LUNCH:
Chicken tenders, pretzel stick, sweet potato fries, pears and milk.
And now it’s time for Manic Mystery Monday so pop your thinking caps on and teachers dial 1420 when you have heard the entire question and your class has an answer:
Question: What is the name for the process in which caterpillars turn into butterflies?
Answer: Metamorphosis.
Class: Mr. Grandstaff
Note: The transformation from caterpillar to butterfly is a 4-stage process called complete metamorphosis: egg, larva (caterpillar), pupa (chrysalis), and adult. The caterpillar eats, grows, and molts before forming a chrysalis, where its body liquefies and rearranges into a butterfly, emerging after about two weeks.
Have a marvelous Monday everybody!

Another wee reminder that this is a PBIS week and that means that we are revisiting the multitude of ways in which we can be respectful, responsible, and our very best! It also means that we are focusing on being positive. Challenge yourself to go 10 minutes with only positive thoughts. It might be harder than you think. If it is, maybe you should challenge yourself to really work on that. You’ll be surprised by how much impact it has on your personal happiness.
LUNCH:
Pizza, green beans, pineapple, and milk.
We will have concessions tomorrow at the end of the day so bring your monies for the sugar sling!
Hey Guys, it’s Thankful Thursday. Take a second to think about 1 thing someone did or said yesterday that made your day a little bit better, and then think about how you might pass that along today!
Have a tremendous Thursday everybody! Let’s make today RIDICULOUSLY amazing!
