This week, we welcomed Michael Azira of the Colorado Rapids to speak to all the YESS students. He spoke of the many challenges he overcame to achieve success and how setting good goals was vital for him. The kids loved hearing him talk and enjoyed taking photos afterward.
During this mini-assembly, we announced winners of various awards the YESS kids voted on. All the winners were ecstatic to be recognized by their peers for being positive, motivated, energetic leaders!
In class, we revisited our time capsules. The students made these at the beginning of the school year and delighted in reflecting on their progress. Some students even commented on how much better their handwriting became, while others thought their penmanship got worse!
As always, there were group photos galore. I'm beyond proud of the family these kids have become and I can't wait to see how they continue to grow!
