Students in Ms. Amy Burbage’s 2nd grade class have started the school year off strong learning how to develop their growth mindset. The students have learned to treat their brain as if it is a muscle which requires training in order to grow stronger. They have learned that mistakes always provide opportunities to grow and that there is enormous power in the things they haven’t accomplished YET! Way to go Ms. Burbage's class!!!


Please plan to join us for Back to School Night!!!
