Hive Happenings Newsletter


Dear Stenwood Families,

As we approach winter break we hope all of you have a happy and healthy winter break.  Our office will be closed during the break.

We look forward to seeing many of you at our winter concert tomorrow at 7:00pm; we know it will be amazing, as always! 

Finally, we want to welcome our newest Stenwood staff member, Mr. Brian Spector.  He is joining us as our full-time office assistant.  He will start on Monday, January 6th.  Please give him a warm welcome the next time you stop by or call. 

Sincerely,
Erica Riley, Principal
Meredith Mitchell, Assistant Principal

LOST AND FOUND

Stenwood Community ~ Are you missing a hat, water bottle, jacket, sweater!? We have an abundance of them in the cafeteria lost and found.  Please have your student come down and check the tables.


Positivity Project ~ Optimism

This week we are focusing on Optimism. You expect the best from the future and work to achieve it.


“When the world says, “Give Up”, Hope whispers, “Try it one more time.”.”
                                                             ~Author Unknown

Questions you might enjoy talking about:
• When were you optimistic in a situation? How could that situation have turned out differently if you weren’t optimistic?
• Do you believe that hope and optimism are “contagious”?
• What is your dream for your future self?  What will you have to do to achieve that goal?
