Her positive attitude and willingness to be an active member of our team make her a wonderful example for her fellow cheerleaders.

Annalise continues to show these qualities through her actions. Whether she is practicing a routine, encouraging a teammate, following directions, or simply bringing a positive attitude to practice, she reminds us what it means to be part of the J.W.C. Shining Stars family. 🎀⭐
🌟 Annalise, we are incredibly proud of you! 🌟

🚨 SQUISHIES STAY HOME! 🚨

To help keep our campus safe, clean, and focused on learning, we are asking students to please leave squishies at home! 🏫✨

🧼 Keep Our Restrooms Clean: Squishies are being taken into restrooms, washed, and causing students to use large amounts of paper towels.

💥 Prevent Messy Spills: Some squishies have popped or leaked, creating messes that are difficult to clean.

🧠 Minimize Distractions: Squishies can become a distraction during instructional time and lunch, taking away from learning and focus.

Let's work together to keep M. Rivas & J.W. Caceres Discovery Academies clean, safe, and focused on what matters most—learning! 💙

Thank you for your support and cooperation!
