Student Life & Enrichment
Panda Pride Shout-Outs
At the start of each month, a specific character trait is highlighted as the focus. Throughout the month, teachers recognize students who exemplify this trait by writing personalized shout-outs. These shout-outs are then shared during the morning announcements, celebrating students' positive behaviors and contributions to the school community.
Quarterly Student Celebrations
Each quarter, the school hosts a celebration to honor students who have received Panda Pride Shout-Outs. These students are entered into a drawing for fun panda-themed prizes. In addition, teachers select three students per class to receive special awards in reading, math and character development, recognizing outstanding academic achievement and personal growth.
Community Building
Intentional time for community building is embedded into the daily schedule for every grade and class. These sessions are designed to strengthen relationships, promote social-emotional learning and create a supportive and inclusive classroom environment where all students feel valued and connected.
School Mascot
At our school, Panda Pride is more than just a phrase, it’s a reflection of who we are. The panda was chosen as our mascot because it symbolizes calm strength, kindness and balance—qualities we strive to instill and nurture in every student.
