Mayor of Westland

The 4th graders enjoyed their visit with Mayor Wild today! They asked a lot of really good questions, and learned how the mayor uses the 7 Habits in his life. I can tell that there are definitely some future leaders in our class that are using the habit Begin with the End in Mind!

Assemblies

Today was full of fun! First we had a Red Wings assembly where we learned about the importance of education, dedication, eating healthy, and exercise. In the afternoon we listened to a motivation speaker named Reggie who talked about bullying. We learned about how hurtful words can be, and how to lift each other up. We, also, got to listen to some great music!  ðŸŽ¶ðŸŽ¶ðŸŽ¶
