On Monday, East End Intermediate recognized 26 students who received positive office referrals for demonstrating the Yellowjacket Way during the month of February.

For attendance, we had 31 3rd-graders, 28 4th-graders, and 25 5th-graders (a grand total of 84 students) who received certificates for perfect attendance for the month of February. The CKH focus word of the month for March is courage.

We look forward to celebrating their efforts at our next Monthly Morning Meeting.
