THANKSGIVING FEAST
It was so nice to see so many families at our Thanksgiving Feast and Celebration of Learning event Wednesday! It was a wonderful opportunity for us to come together as a school community. I know students enjoyed sharing their work with you and having a special meal together. We thank all of our volunteers who helped make the day a success!
STUDENT BLOG HIGHLIGHTS WHAT STUDENTS ARE GRATEFUL FOR
In the student blog this week, students wrote about what they appreciate most at Gold Rush. Students recognized their friends, teachers and families. They also celebrated the ways they help each other and the larger community. Click here for the student blog.
THANKFUL FOR THOSE WHO SERVE
Students in grades 1-5 learned about Veterans' Day Monday. Students watched a video and listened to a story that emphasized the difference those that serve make. Students expressed their appreciation by writing cards to soldiers currently serving overseas. We are excited to send students' heartfelt messages in a larger care package.
LEGEND FEEDER SAC MEETING
The School Advisory Councils representing the six schools that feed into Legend High School met this week to further define the following four feeder values identified by the councils last year: critical thinking, resiliency, independence, and community. Building principals used the parent feedback to create the feeder vision statement shown below.
In addition to further defining what these values mean to parents, SAC representatives from across the schools identified action steps that would help strengthen how these values are addressed in schools K-12.

Dear U.S. Solider,
Thank you so much for all that hard work you go through to keep our country safe. You serve us for one reason and that is to protect us from any type of threat. You risk your life for the millions of people in the United States. We thank and honor you for all of your courage and struggles. We are free because of you. Happy Veterans' Day. Thank you.
From Your Friend,
Levi

Empower students to think critically, demonstrate resiliency and act independently. Our students will contribute positively to the broader community.
