Congratulations to our Point of Pride student this week! Mia Benitez is an all-around model student. She pours her heart into every assignment and is always looking for ways to improve. She is a creative thinker and a problem-solver. Most importantly, Mia demonstrates the PLES moto of Pride, Leadership, Engagement, and Safety. Mia consistently looks for ways to help around the classroom and school. She doesn't wait to be asked; she jumps in and gets the job done. We are proud to have a leader like Mia to be our Point of Pride student this week for 5th Grade.

We will focus on developing healthy choices, including such as getting enough sleep, making healthy food decisions, exercising, developing positive character traits, thinking of others, and self-control.
These will be our dress-up days for the week:
Monday - Sport healthy choices = wear athletic and sports attire
Tuesday - Ride the waves with healthy choices = wear beach and surfer attire
Wednesday - Unhealthy choices will make you cry like a baby = dress like a tiny tot
Thursday - Develop healthy character traits = Dress like your favorite book character
Friday - Rise up against cancer = wear pink
We're rooting for the Adairsville High football team to win against the Lafayette team at tonight's home game.
Celebrate Homecoming at Tiger Stadium. Go Tigers!
