The Hebrew word of the week is "shnatz" which means "nap". Also, shnatz is my new favorite word. #Shinshinim #nap #MorningAnnouncements #CDSpgh

In Jan 2017, Miss R was talking to the 5th graders about the big game and said " I probably won't even make a basket." Her students said, "That's NOT a growth mindset!" and one of them made a sign. That sign has been at every game since then.

On Friday, Miss R made a basket in the big game, against those very same former 5th graders. The sign was torn in half, a lesson was learned and a lifetime memory was made! #GrowthMindset #Classof2020 @MissRakaczky Mindset Works #basketball #CDSpgh
