The first week of school was amazing! We learned, practiced, and put into action our class rules and procedures. There were a few glitches here and there but with practice and consistency, we will have it down in no time. Team building is a critical attribute of successful students; therefore we took on a team challenge and learned quality traits about ourselves and each other when working as a team under pressure. The following are a few pictures from our proud Falcons working in groups.
