Our Wildcat Wisdom Trait for November is Gratitude.
Gratitude means being thankful, and showing appreciation for people who are kind to you.
Students will spend time this month reflecting on all the things we are grateful for.
We will be creating a giant turkey as a school that shows our gratitude!
