Over 200 Valentines treats delivered to Akron Students for Valentines day by Akron FCCLA students!
Akron students were honored on Thursday to welcome speaker Nathan Harmon from Your Life Speaks. He traveled from Indiana to speak with our K-12th graders. The K-4th graders learned about making good choices, being kind, don’t be selfish, and being a good listener. There were separate assemblies for the 5th & 6th graders and the 7th-12th graders where they learned about
“The Five”:
1. Work hard
2. Be transparent
3. Value people
4. Accountability
5. Good choices
If you would like to hear more about Mr. Harmon’s message, check him out at Your Life Speaks on Facebook or @your_life_speaks on Instagram.
Our 1st and 2nd graders discussed "being thankful" this week and wrote everything they are thankful for on the white boards in the hallways. There's a LOT to be thankful for!!
