Lifeskill of the week is Integrity

From the Principal

We at Brennen are enjoying our third year of ITI (Integrated Thematic Instruction) implementation. In virtually every classroom, you can find an enhanced emphasis on Stage One elements - the physical and emotional environment for the students. In additon, our classrooms are beginning to show good evidence of Stage Two elements - curriculum issues. Go to http://www.kovalik.com/ for more details.
