🌟 Leadership Quote of the Week
🎤 Read by: Emma Payne

“We cannot change the cards we are dealt—just how we play the hand.”

Life doesn’t always give us the circumstances we would choose. Challenges, setbacks, and unexpected turns are part of every journey. While we may not have control over what comes our way, we always have control over how we respond.

Each decision we make—how we treat others, how we persevere, how we grow—shapes the outcome of our story. Strength is not found in having perfect conditions, but in making the most of what we have.

Let this be a reminder: resilience, attitude, and effort can turn even the toughest hand into an opportunity. Play wisely, stay determined, and never underestimate the power you hold in your choices.

🌟 Leadership Quote of the Week
🎤 Read by: Abi

Here’s a little inspiration to start your day. As Charlie Chaplin once said,
“You’ll never find a rainbow if you’re looking down.” 🌈

What does that mean for us? It’s a reminder to stay positive and keep your head up—even when things feel tough. Whether it’s a challenging assignment, a disagreement with a friend, or just a long week, try to focus on the good around you.

Opportunities, friendships, and success are easier to see when you choose to look for them.

👉 So today, walk through the halls with confidence, kindness, and a positive mindset—you never know what “rainbow” you might find!

Hey Gators,

We’ve noticed more messes and vandalism in the bathrooms lately. Please pick up after yourself, respect school property, and tell an adult if the restroom is dirty or damaged.

To help keep things safe and clean, campus staff will be outside the bathrooms during class, and restroom doors will stay propped open during the school day.

Let’s all do our part to make our school a great place for everyone!

✈️ Spring Travel Reminder
