Besides building strength, karate can help to increase confidence and self-esteem. A dedicated karate instructor teaches us the importance of staying focused, respecting others, and improving our overall well-being. Our students enjoy participating in this special activity a few times throughout the school year.
Just like people, some dogs are more fortunate than others. Although we often have no idea what a dog has been through in its life, we do know that it needs love and encouragement. Our students are always more than happy to provide that. Although it takes longer for some pups to warm up than others, they usually come around and accept what we have to offer. This is so important because it makes them more adoptable.
We challenged our students and staff to show their school spirit by wearing a specific color to represent their grade. Congratulations to our senior class for showing the most spirit with 100% participation. We are excited to see who it will be next month!
We held a pep rally to show support for our basketball team this week. It was exciting to hear the names of players announced as they ran under the bridge provided by our cheerleaders. For many of our students, it was a new experience and it certainly generated a lot of excitement about the upcoming games.
Our high school basketball season is underway and it has been going very well. For some of our seniors, this is their fourth year, but for others, it’s a brand new experience. Led by our friendly mascot, the team is working together and having a good time. Everyone is really looking forward to the next game.
The science of thermal energy was brought to life at Windsor by a company called Wondergy. Two scientists demonstrated different ways that energy is used and explained how and why it all works. We were on the edge of our seats during the whole colorful and exciting assembly.
Our student council worked together to make everything run smoothly at our annual pancake breakfast. They set the tables, served warm pancakes, and made everyone feel welcome. No task was too difficult for our eager crew as they worked in shifts to provide our hungry guests with a great experience.
After brainstorming about ideas that excite them, students have to come up with a game plan to make it all happen. Once they figure out what materials are required and they gather everything, it’s time for the next step. During the weekly sessions that follow, our entrepreneurs make their products. This is all in preparation for our annual marketplace where they have an opportunity to sell them. It’s a very exciting process that we look forward to each year!
Students were very curious about our special visitor today. With his plush red suit, long white beard, tall black boots, and jolly personality, Santa quickly attracted everyone’s attention. He listened closely to wishes and answered many clever questions. The sense of wonder and excitement that he created was magical. We wish all of you a very happy and safe holiday season!
Although they all started out with the same blank canvas, and basic instructions, each person ended up with a different result. Just like snowflakes that are known for being unique, so are people and their snowmen. That’s what makes them interesting!
