INSIDE OUR CLASSROOMS 🐯 Before the holiday break, students in Mr. George Snelling's Business Entrepreneurship class made cookies for the Sheltered Opportunities Workshop in Houston as well as the administrative team on campus. The high school students purchased, baked and prepared more than 200 Neiman Marcus cookies.
INSIDE OUR CLASSROOMS 🐯 Our high school World History classes, under the instruction of Ms. Erin Johnston, opened the second semester discussing SMART goals and resolutions. They considered what makes goals obtainable and how we can be held accountable for goals that we set. Students then summarized their goals with a power word that they posted to help remind them of what they're working towards.
