-----------------------------------------------------------
We are very excited to continue our positive pride program, *Viking of the Week! This program is spearheaded by our support staff and specials teachers. They interact and see students in other scenarios outside of the classroom. Our staff decided they would like to have a positive program of their own to allow the quiet heroes of our school to “shine!” They will collect names all week of students who they think deserve special recognition for being positive role models. On the last day of that week, out of the names collected, 2 students in K-2 and 3-5 will be randomly chosen to be the “Viking of the Week.”
How do you become the Viking of the Week? The following are the guidelines for being chosen:
*Be a Leader, by demonstrating Leadership qualities.
*Be a Self Directed Learner.
*Being a Hard Worker.
*Being a Good Friend.
*Being a Problem Solver.
*Having great School Spirit.
*Being a Role Model.
*Having a positive attitude.
*Being respectful to staff and fellow students.
*Having Integrity.
*Going above and beyond.
*Being in control of their emotions. Good and Bad.
*A noticeable change in behavior for the better.

Our 2nd graders went to Wethersfield Elementary today to visit their pen pals.
