Mrs. Betteridge, our PE specialist, knows how to get kids to move and be active...DANCE!   It's fun!  It's creative! It's non-competitive!  It builds coordination and flexibility!  Everyone participates!  What a great way to get kids moving!  Thanks, Mrs. Betteridge!

Every Wednesday, students trade ten "Great Grizzlies" for a token.  Students exhange their tokens for toys. Teachers reward students with "Great Grizzlies" for following rules and displaying good behavior in the classroom, rewarding hard work in the classroom, homework completion, attendance and punctuality, acts of kindness, lunchroom/hall behavior, and more!
