Students in Ms. Ryan's counseling class listened to a story, "Maddi's Fridge" about how friends could appear to be the same while going through two completely different situations. This lesson prepared our students for the Food Drive that is happening in our district this week. It helped students see why it is important to help others without judgment. The students had great questions after the story.

When Mr. Pontious says he will do anything for his students, he means it. A student lost a frisbee last week when it landed on the roof. Mr. Pontious climbed up today to retrieve it. Thanks for everything, Mr. P! You made that student's day!
