Grizzly Den Practices Kindness
Grizzly Den Practices Kindness

This month, Grizzly Dens are focused on the Character Trait of Kindness. Our Grizzlies shared ways that they show kindness through Post-it notes and through "Opening Circles." In these circles, students share different aspects of kindness with their classmates. An updated version of the community bulletin board showcases all the ways our students are kind.

Principal Jill Ravenscraft

Meet Principal Jill Ravenscraft!

Hi, Grizzly families! The best parts about being a principal are that I get to be with kids all day long, I have the honor of watching dedicated staff members support our students in the most devoted and creative ways, and I get to see our collective future unfold right before my very eyes.  What’s not to love? A few fun facts about me: I really enjoy the children’s books “Maniac Magee” (I cannot get through it without crying) and “There’s a Monster at the End of This Book” (Sesame Street, from when my son was little). When I’m listening to music, I’ll pick anything that I can dance and clean to (NO Techno, however). My bucket list includes visiting all of the U.S. National Parks and staying in an apartment with a view of Central Park in New York City from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day. I’m left-handed, and if I go back two generations on both sides of my family, only my paternal grandfather and one cousin were also left-handed.
