The Elementary held an assembly today to do their final puff ball dump, to see if they reached their PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) goal for the month of October. Not only did they reach it they surpassed it! As a reward, they got to "chalk the walk!"
Reminder: No school tomorrow or Friday! We hope our students enjoy the long weekend! ELC and Elementary parent/teacher conferences start tonight, 4-8 pm and continue from 8 am - 8 pm tomorrow.
If you aren't able to make it to the game tonight, you can listen to Tim Foley broadcasting live at http://TheCometCast.com
We are sorry for the delay in posting Friday's Main Event at the Elementary! We recognized the Caring Comets pictured below, and we dumped our weekly puff balls into the whole school bin! Puff balls are earned throughout the week for good behavior.
