Grade 1

Class Pledge: When we care about each other and our classroom we share, take turns and help each other learn. We listen carefully, always trying to do our best. We work hard. We give each other praise and have fun together. We know that everyone makes mistakes so we don't laugh or make fun of them. We think about what is right and try our best to be fair and kind. This is who we are when no one is watching.
