PEER MINISTER – CONNOR H

Loving God,

We thank you for guiding us through this school year

As we step into summer and look to what’s next,

Please give us the courage to face the future, wisdom to know how to maneuver it, and curiosity to attempt new experiences. 

Keep our hearts open, our minds curious, and our spirits strong.

Amen.

Attention all students!  Be sure you keep your YONDR pouch in your backpack so it’s ready to go for next year. If it gets lost or broken, you will need to get a new YONDR in August. Thanks! 

_____________________

Finally, it is Yondr time! Students, please take out your phones and your open Yondr pouch. Your teachers will ask you to lock it away for the day. Our goal is to be phone free from the start of school until 2:40. It’s always best to have your Yondr locked when it’s empty in your backpack, as that will help keep the locking pin safe. Simply unlock your Yondr on the way into school each day, and after you release it at the end of the day, close and lock your Yondr again before you put in your backpack.

Also, middle school students, please check your WINS for today! If you didn’t get your locker signed off, you have been pinged for a WIN to take care of it!

PEER MINISTER

Hey Pios, this is a summer service reminder from Peer Ministry! While service was officially due May 1st, you can still continue to do and track your service experiences all summer long, and they’ll count towards next year’s requirements! Summer is a great time for service, so think about volunteering at day camps, helping mow lawns for free, assisting at summer fairs, and so much more! Just remember to keep tracking your service throughout the summer!

LEXI W

Good morning Pioneers! This is Lexi W here with your Wellness Wednesday tip for this week. The topic of the week is the 8-8-8 rule which goes as follows: 8 hours of sleep, 8 hours of work, and 8 hours of family, friends, and fun each day. Making sure to keep a balanced life is crucial for maintaining good mental health, and the 8-8-8 rule is a nice rule of thumb to keep in mind. While it may not always be possible, try to stay as close to those ratios as possible, and you will see a difference. Thank you, and have a wonderful Wednesday!
