Our classes have been working incredibly hard in the cafeteria and consistently earning positive points toward our Lunch Dojo goal. Their teamwork, respectful behavior, and leadership helped them become this week’s Lunch Dojo winners! On top of the Golden Spatial we have created a special reward, students have been enjoying board games hosted by Ms. Mitera and her wonderful therapy dogs. We are so proud of their effort and the positive choices they continue to make each day!
