Our School Mantra
"Be brave, be kind, work hard." At School #4, we promote a growth mindset in our students, that whatever they cannot currently do, they can work towards. Not "I can't," but "I will.....with more practice." Accepting challenges, treating others well, and doing one's best are behaviors that can build positive character traits.

The Most Magnificent Thing
By Ashley Spires
A little girl and her canine assistant set out to make the most magnificent thing. But after much hard work, the end result is not what the girl had in mind. Frustrated, she quits. Her assistant suggests a long walk, and as they walk, it slowly becomes clear what the girl needs to do to succeed.
