A student who

A child who sees

    others?
A child who

  the rules?
A child who can
 hardly read or
write but speaks

we look for.
This year . . .
Who will you
   see?
Teach our students to
believe in themselves…

Help them recognize
  their strengths…
Never forget that the teacher
 is the single most important
   factor in the classroom…

Schools and caring educators
  with high expectations do
     make a difference.
Once you
choose hope,
 anything's
  possible. ?
 -Christopher
    Reeve
