😂 Joke of the Week

Q: What did the digital clock say to the grandfather clock?

A: “Look Grandpa! No hands!”

🌟 Leadership Quote of the Week

🎤 Read by: Emily Gallagher

“The tree falls the way it leans… be careful which way you lean.” – The Lorax

Every choice you make—how you treat others, how hard you work, and who you spend time with—shapes the person you are becoming. Just like a tree slowly grows in the direction it leans, your habits and attitude today will guide your future tomorrow.

Lean toward kindness when others are negative.
Lean toward effort when things get difficult.
Lean toward honesty, respect, and perseverance even when no one is watching.

Middle school is a time where small choices make a big difference. Make sure you are leaning toward the best version of yourself every day!

🎉 Congratulations!
