What a great day!

Many of division 4's students were 
members of the cross-country team
coached by Ms. Conklin 
This was a terrific example of a growth
mindset. This athlete did not have a great
start to her race. She thought she had 
lost her mum amongst the hundreds of
parents who were at the meet.  Can you
imagine how scary that was?  Well it
was very distressing and right up until
the race started she was in tears. As you 
can imagine, not the best mindset to start
a race with. For some children, it would 
have been easier and safer to say they 
weren't going to run.  Not for Addi!  She 
got out there and ran her best. I was so 
proud of her!
