Mini Celebration Day
As a way to help continue to build relationships within the PA teams and with the coaches- we are holding a mini celebration today on the groups progress so far! Above is a picture of 2 students working together to finish a poster that is a part of their presentation... More updates after they present!

The work continues...
The students working on a powerpoint presentation of their progress.
On Friday, December 16, the students will be presenting to fellow classmates about their topics, goals and what they have learned so far this year. We have had a new student join the group this week, another 8th grader and the only girl in the group. She excelled at organizing and leading the group and so far the group has been very accepting of her.
Today the students were discussing what they want to share about their work so far. They talked about obvious things such as their team name: The Bully Bosses, their slogan: just stoppin' it and their goal: to help reduce bullying at their school.
They also decided they wanted to share what they are learning about how to work together and give respect to each other. As our newest member pointed out, "it's important to show that we are learning to be nice and work together so people don't think we are hypocrites. Also, if we can do, anybody can do it!"
They continue to amaze me in these moments.
