October’s Character Trait at Kana:takon School was Empathy. Our Book of the Month that was read by all was “Don’t Laugh At Me.” Students of the Month were chosen based on this character trait. They are true friends, include everyone in conversations and activities and find things in common with other students. The following students were chosen as Student of the Month for October—K4: Lila Mitchell, K5: Jasmine Herne, 7A:Starlyn Mason, 7B: Mackenzie Oakes, 8A: Albert Terrance, and 8B: Michael Hill.
