Our school has no indoor gym for students to have Physical Education classes so all our activities take place outdoors on a little court yard. I have learned you get what you brag on not what you nag on and Faith is the confidence, hope and assurance of what we do not see.We believe our scholars can achieve success with the right equipment and tools for learning. Our students are the most amazing, respectful, resilient, loving , eager to learn and consistantly reveal a spectacular verve . Passion, enthusiasm, servant leadership purpose is is our special sauce or what makes us great. Learning and teaching go both ways - my students have changed my life ,now it's time to change theirs, " Big doors do swing on little hinges." My outdoor classroom is a challenge on a daily basis; weather, sand on the play areas and the scorching rays of the sun. Never the less we focus on what we do have the love of leaerning.
