Welcome to the 10th anniversary year of Renaissance at FWS!  This year our theme is "Believe You Are an All*Star!"  We encourage all students to find their inner ALL*STAR!  As always, we have an awesome new t-shirt to celebrate this year's theme.  Only on sale until 9/21! Don't miss out!

Each month we celebrate a different character value.  In school, students will see videos and do activities to reinforce them.  Once a month we have a challenge to celebrate the value.  This month's value is RESPONSIBILITY.  

First challenge day will be Thursday, September 29th.  Students should wear GREEN for Responsibility. Taken from The 6 Pillars of Character....

Responsibility : Green
Think being responsible for a garden or finances; or as in being solid and reliable like an oak-- 

Responsibility
Do what you are supposed to do * Plan ahead * Persevere: keep on trying! * Always do your best * Use self-control * Be self-disciplined * Think before you act - consider the consequences * Be accountable for your words, actions, and attitudes * Set a good example for others

HELP NEEDED!
If there are any parents who would be able to help in the morning once a month with the Renaissance School Store, please contact Ms. Dietrich tdietrich@burltwpsch.org
