Hello, Middle School Students and Families! Below is a recap of this week’s MS Meeting.
Noa Shatz-Cauley ’29 and Brianna Wand ’29 ran today’s meeting. You can check out the slides from this week’s meeting here.
THE BVR STUDENT
Lee Jacobs ’29 presented “values mistakes and takes responsibility for actions“
I chose to present this element because I know it is an important way to learn and grow. Specifically, when playing sports, it is important to admit when you make mistakes to be able to improve and be a better athlete. If you ignore them, you don’t learn from them, and you will continue to make mistakes.
