Monday, October 6th starts Week of Respect. This is a time for schools to focus on anti-bullying and violence prevention. To celebrate, we will also be having our first spirit week of the school year. Please see attached flyer.
Ms. Cruz’s ELA students brought Gothic Literature to life through a collaborative PBL! 🕯️📚
Students researched multiple aspects/ elements of the genre and shared their findings in engaging digital presentations with their peers.
So Pilla Proud of their creativity and hard work!
