Kyle Maynard's Grit

Fall Festival Tomorrow for Periods 4, 6, 7 ! Don't forget to wear your comfortable shoes and enjoy the music, raffle and sports we will have!

Tomorrow I will be posting about 8th Grade sunglasses, the new 7th grade project and 6th grade picture books/identity powerpoints. Be sure to check that out!

Tomorrow's Grit Video is below. We will be focusing on Kyle Maynard, a 25 year old amputee who hasn't let life get him down and overcomes any obstacle that comes in his way. We will be comparing Kyle to Liz Murray (Homeless to Harvard), Richie Parker (Nascar Engineer born without arms) and Welles Crowther (Red Bandanna of 9/11).

Until then kids, the secret words are:

6th Grade: Stereotype

7th Grade: Self-Esteem

Enjoy the weekend!
