Today at our assembly, we learned what our WIGs are for the new school year. What are WIGs? They are our Wildly Important Goals. Our first goal is for every student in the school to earn 2 Croc Claws during the school year. A student can earn a Croc Claw by living one of the 7 Habits of Highly Effective Students. The 2nd goal is do their nightly reading so they can earn a reading ticket. The school wide goal is to 10,000 tickets by the Reading Carnival in May. If each student lives the 7 habits and reads every night, we can achieve our goals! Let’s do this! Let’s Be Proactive, Put First Things First and Synergize!
