GRIT, Bikes and Academy Sports and Outdoors

Last week we received some wonderful news from Academy Sports and Outdoors. This new company that just opened its doors over the weekend is donating 50 bikes to our school. 25 boys and 25 girls will receive a new bike at a December assembly.
To qualify for 1 of the 50 bikes a student has to show GRIT. What is GRIT? GRIT is passion and perseverance. We want our students at Estes to not back down from challenges. We want our students to meet challenges head on without the fear of being wrong.
Each time a student is seen exhibiting GRIT he or she will receive a GRIT ticket that will be placed in a jar. There will be a jar for each boys and girls inside each classroom. The more times a student uses GRIT the odds of winning a bike increases.
SHOW SOME GRIT AND EARN A BIKE!
