A Note from the Principal
APEX STRONG is here! Greetings Burnett Families! On Friday we completed STEP #3 of becoming STRONG Leaders with the Apex Team. Our students learned what it means to REFUEL and why it is so important to take care of our two tanks: Our brain and our body. We can only be STRONG leaders by taking care of our body through consistent exercise and healthy eating habits. We give our brains a break by getting a good amount of sleep, not worrying or stressing and not spending too much time on our devices.
Here is our top 5 leaderboard:
1st: Johnson $56/lap
2nd: Flanders $47/lap
3rd: Humphrey $44/lap
4th: Hutchinson $34/lap
5th: Carne $32/lap Here is our weekend challenge
