Commitment to Character
 
Mrs. Stavrevski – Mrs. S. has created a way for students to show who they really are through their demonstration of different characteristic traits. Each month students can be nominated by a staff member for displaying an action that makes them stand out from their peers. These are traits that help to make the students stronger as individuals inside and out of the classroom.
