November Character Education Assembly

This month’s character education trait is Thankfulness. Children from all second grade classes worked together to prepare a brief presentation on all that they have to be thankful for. Students in the audience were given time to focus their thoughts on the many reasons for being thankful.  Here at Stonehedge we are thankful for…
  • the strong sense of community and sense of pride that is apparent at Stonehedge.
  • the many parents who volunteer at school or offer their support through the many enriching PTA events.
  • the dedicated and talented teachers and support staff that continuously strive to create a learning environment in which our children will flourish.
  • the staff at Stonehedge – the office staff, the school nurse, the custodial staff, the kitchen staff, teacher assistants, and aides – for their contributions to our learning community.
  • the students who show respect for each other and come to school each day striving to achieve their personal best.
Stonehedge is certainly a great place to be!
