 "Every problem is an opportunity in disguise."

Students: Come to a Brown Bag Lunch today in the multimedia room to hear from motivational speaker David Roche. Mr. Roche will talk about the challenges he faced as a child - as someone who looked different than others - and how he overcame those challenges, looked within himself for strength, and became the strong leader he is today. Bring your lunch! See Ms. Goodman with any questions.
