Shepherd Middle School Cheer Competition tomorrow at home. Come on out and support our competitive cheer team. It starts at 10:00 a.m.
Today we are wrapping up our final school day in January, and all month long we’ve been talking about respect and what it truly means in our daily lives. Take a moment to think about your actions, words, and choices. Have you made any changes this month in how you show respect—to classmates, adults, or yourself? Maybe you’ve been more mindful of your language, more patient with others, or more responsible in shared spaces.
Now think about this: How can you carry those respectful choices forward and turn them into a daily habit? How can you show respect consistently in the hallway, cafeteria, classroom, and online? What is one respectful action you can commit to continuing as we move into a new month?
”Remember to be R.E.A.L.—Respectful, Engaged, Accountable Leaders. Be R.E.A.L. every day. And always know, we’re glad you’re here.”
