Ti-GRRR Assembly

Ti-GRRR stands for Growth, Respect, Resilience, and Responsibility.

We held a school-wide assembly on Monday to talk about what it means to be part of a community, and how we each contribute to the welfare of that space.  We will be focusing on one core value every few weeks, starting with Growth.  I am so pleased and proud to share that we already have a few Ti-GRRR Cards up on our Ti-GRRR wall in the cafeteria.  Congratulations to those students who have been recently recognized for demonstrating what it means to show personal GROWTH!  We look forward to adding more examples of students embodying being a Ti-GRRR in our community!

A special thank you to Mrs. Mitchell and our Student Council for leading us in song as we begin to learn the words to our new school song “Roar” by Katie Perry, chosen by our student council.

Please take a moment and take a look at the presentation that was discussed at the assembly and continue to encourage and support your children to strive for being their best selves, positive members of our community, and Swallow Union Ti-GRRRs.
