Chats with Mr. Carter...

Griffin Nation!! Well here we go, 1st full week ahead. This week, we are wanting to keep the main thing the main thing. Get to school safely, provide a positive learning environment, work towards getting back to a routine of increased learning and return the students back to you safely. Sometimes, it's best to remind ourselves of that, after all, that's what we are all trying to do and doing that the best we can. Let's do it. We learn, We lead, We serve!
