MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY - "The most meaningful way to succeed is to help others succeed" - Adam Grant
Have a great week, Pirates!
"Everyday at Pine Tree ISD, we're teaching kids how to think, not what to think. We’re teaching kids how to rise to expectations not make excuses on why they can't. We’re teaching kids how to make good choices and good decisions so they don't have to endure a lifetime of pain for making poor decisions. We’re teaching kids you've got to put in whatever amount of work it takes to get the job done because you can't sit around and wait for someone else to do it. Basically, we are teaching kids how to be successful adults.” Steve Clugston, Pine Tree ISD Superintendent https://youtu.be/iNS3mLjsaJ8?si=pjwHkN1XvQJa-5Qc

Today is School Nurse Appreciation Day!
School Nurses are strong, yet compassionate. They often walk with determination, yet have the gentlest touch. They are educators as they are always willing to teach and share their knowledge. They are good listeners and always seem to be there when you need them.
Thank you to our district nurses for taking care of our Pirates every day and the impact you have on their lives.
