Today is a “A” Day
Club Meetings and Information
- It’s Unity Day – a day when we wear orange to stand up for kindness, inclusion and acceptance. In Flex today, please take the opportunity to learn about the I ACT model. Check your Canvas announcements for a link to play a Blooket and to be entered into a raffle to earn gift cards to Stewarts, Amazon, Starbucks, and Dunkin. During lunch, you’ll sign the No Place for Hate Pledge, get a sticker and get another chance to be entered into our gift card raffle. Thanks for doing your part to make Maple Ave rated E for Everyone!
