Janssen's Closing Ceremony

With the closing ceremonies of the Bulldog Olympics, our purpose for teaching our students our behavioral expectations and having our students practice them came to light. Each grade level was given a topic.  Each class within each grade level created a banner highlighting the importance of the selected topic in relation to making good decisions.  Representatives from each class read their messages to the entire student body.  The atmosphere was electric.  Over 450 people gathered in our gym to celebrate our learning around teamwork, sportsmanship, winning, losing, and perseverance.  Adding to the excitement were two special guests--two members of our high school varsity football team.  They also shared with our students  the importance of the messages presented.  

I wish to thank all staff who volunteered their time to make this work--not just closing ceremonies but the entire two week Bulldog Olympics.  Their efforts are just another reason why Janssen Rocks, Woof!  Woof!
