My students are a very lively, busy bunch! They love to work together in centers and learn from each other. Our school facilitates this style of learning by offering and supporting many different styles of learning environments through creative and technological programs. We also emphasize the importance of character traits through the use of our "Charger Traits"-Be Responsible, Be Respectful, Be Caring and Be Safe. Each morning we kick of the school day by singing our "Charger Trait" chant to the tune of "We Will Rock You"! What a way to motivate your day!!
