The more you know....

  By: Miss Megan I am getting excited for the first official Teen Book Club event, September 29, 2020!  Getting everything together for Kindness month has really opened my eyes to the power kindness has in this world.  Being the very best version of yourself is something that all of us should strive for in life.  Being the best version of yourself requires not only having healthy habits to keep a healthy body, but a healthy mind as well.  You ALL have talents and gifts that you can share with your friends and family.
