Today was our first Houses Team Building day! Students met up for a "speed dating" session to get to know their new teammates by asking questions about each other's interests, some "would you rather" questions, and even some special memories. Our House Teams consist of two different grade-levels on the same team. We loved seeing our older students model leadership for our youngers! Featured here is Guy, Garver, and Keller/Seng's Homerooms (Onraka 🧡), Talbott and Duckworth's Homerooms (Isibindi 💚), and Stinehour and Prince/Showecker (Amistrad ❤️)
