The Falcon Nest!

Throughout the year, staff members will be acknowledging and connecting with students as they follow the Falcon 5. As a way to mark these successful moments for students, staff members may give students “Falcon Eggs”  (shiny metallic coins) for them to contribute to a Falcon nest jar within their own classroom. Every other week, classrooms will empty their nests into a school wide nest. 

Students have filled the nest twice so far this school year! Each time the nest is filled, the school will celebrate as a community. Last month, Thunder swooped down from his nest and visited every classroom to show pride in student success. This week, students in prek and K had a picnic outside and 1st/2nd graders got to pick their seat at lunch! 

The focus of each celebration is centered around community and recognizing how we contribute to a great place to learn!
