🌊 Word of the Year: IMPACT 🌟

At our Opening Day celebration, Dr. McIntyre introduced this year’s guiding word: IMPACT. Every action, big or small, creates ripples that reach far beyond what we can see. Like a stone skipping across water, the relationships we build, the lessons we teach, and the kindness we show leave lasting effects on our students, staff, and community.

To symbolize this theme, teachers decorated rocks and received IMPACT pins, daily reminders that each of us has the power to make a difference.

Here’s to a year of growth, learning, and transformation through the impact we create together!
