We’re excited to share The Leader in Me last habit! Habit #7 is “Sharpen the Saw”. This means that balance is best! We function best when we balance work and self care (which includes finding time to play!) 🐾
We finished “Start with Hello!” week United as a team in our spirit wear! Have a great weekend, Bulldogs! We’ll see you Monday! 🐾
A special thanks to Griffin PTA for leading! They are a dedicated group, rallying for our students and growing in membership. If you haven’t joined yet, they’d love to have you!
Thank you all for coming to Griffin’s Open House! We appreciate the time you prioritized for your child’s education! 🐾

This week we share Leader in Me Habit #6: “Synergize”! We are better together! 🐾
Hi Griffin families! Next week our Bulldogs will celebrate “Start with Hello!” Week. See themes below:
Monday - kindness is a chain reaction (students will write down ways to be kind and create a campus chain) ⛓
Tuesday - Hello Tuesday! Students and staff wear green and will wear name tags to help greet everyone by name. 💚
Wednesday - Wacky Wednesday! Wear mismatched socks or shoes. Find a new place to sit, talk to new people, find new ways to be kind. 🤪
Thursday - Trusted Adult Thursday. Choose an adult you trust on campus and write them a note. (Dress up like that trusted adult!) 👔👗
Friends Friday - Stand in solidarity with your fellow Bulldogs and wear a spirit shirt! 🐾
Ms. Zavala’s first grade Bulldogs interact with text by listening, discussing character traits with partners, and extending their understanding of these to address a new story read to them on their devices. #Modeling #GradualRelease #iDoWeDoYouDo 📚 🧠 💻 🐾
Leader in Me Habit #5 is “Seek first to understand, then be understood.” Basically, we listen before we talk! 🐾
Leader in Me Habit #4 is “Think Win-Win”! We can all grow and win together! 🐾
ATTENTION 🛑 We're launching Safe2SpeakUP, which lets students anonymously report any bully-related activity, even for friends, from a mobile app.
