We started this new house system this year and I did all of the preliminary work to get it up and running. It has been a tremendous amount of work, but our staff and students are buying into it. I love it!! It has been a very big game changer for our school as I feel kids are behaving better and they feel more like part of the school. The thank you notes they write show just how much they appreciate all we have done so far. My kids love showing off their house pride with their different shirts, wrist bands, and any other items they wear in their house colors. It has been so amazing to watch. I love that I am able to get this off the ground with the help of wonderful donors, like yourself. I applaud you for being willing to help me, my classes, and my school with all the projects I do to support our efforts. It isn't easy and I would never be able to do it without your help.
