PANTHER PRIDE FOCAL POINT
Welcome back Panther Nation! We hope you have had an amazing and restful summer, and we are so glad that you're here! The first two days were absolutely awesome. There were so many people talking about how positive all of our students were and how you all seem so ready for the school year to get started. Just like the past years, we like to start off our 1st Panther Pride Focus (PPF) talking about Setting the Tone! And by the positive attitudes that you all brought last week, you are all on your way to doing that. Each new school year is an opportunity to make the year whatever you want it to be. It doesn’t matter what the past school years have looked like, because this is the beginning of something new. This is a chance at a fresh start. This year can be your best year yet, all you have to do is believe in yourself. Let your positive actions shine this year. Let everyone know that this year you mean business. That you are going to stop at nothing to be the best version of yourself. Let the world know that YOU, my friend, are ready to get the best grades, perform the best concerts, to win the biggest games, and to be the kindest person that you’ve ever been. It can all start now all you have to do is SET THE TONE!
