🐾 Dear Bulldog Families,

A big thank you to all our PAWSitive 90s Bulldog Scholars who displayed school spirit and fun at the dance!

Our campus expectations continue to focus on PAWS: Pride, Accountable, Wise, and Safe. We also want to give a special thanks to DJ Instructor Jackson, a PAWS PBIS committee member, and the PAWS PBIS Committee: Bural, Burciaga, Carpenter, Cintron, Jackson, Jimenez, Kigigha, King, Lopez, Rich, Robinson, Simpson, Smith, Terry, Thomas who planned, set up, and decorated for the dance. These educators truly go above and beyond to ensure that your students have a PAWSitive experience.  Special thanks also to Instructor Bural and Instructor Rich for donating decoration items as PAWS PBIS committee members. 💜💛

The entire Roy Johnson STEM Academy staff is committed to making every student’s experience at our school wonderful. The dance was a true team effort, and these educators went above and beyond to make it memorable! 🐾
