January Bulletin Boards

January may not be the start of a totally new school year, but it is still a great time to feel like you can start fresh!

Students may feel more motivated than they did before winter break and a bulletin board can help keep that motivation going! Even if the last semester didn’t end up the way that they would have liked, they can always start fresh once school starts again! It is so important to remind them of that.
