Today was National Fun at Work Day. JFK staff celebrated by dressing up in outfits that show what they like to do for fun. Gardening, running, watching TV, sewing, coaching--staff have a variety of ways of unwinding after a day at school!
We are always in need of extra sweatpants and leggings!
We are proud of what we are doing to help students SOAR at JFK. Take a few moments to watch this video to see the highlights of how we have introduced this system that is recognizing positive behaviors in the moment to help all students feel successful at school.
