Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day

Our DVA Eagles were honored to join schools nationwide and participate in Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day. Ruby Bridges lived by the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who taught us to judge people “not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” As a young six year old, Ruby’s bravery changed the course of history and stands as a message of hope and strength for us today. DVA Eagles, remember, our character always counts!

Respect


We are so proud of these Eagles who were nominated by their teacher for the “RESPECT” Character Award!

RESPECT
Treat others with respect; follow the Golden Rule
Be tolerant and accepting of differences
Use good manners, not bad language
Be considerate of the feelings of others
Don’t threaten, hit or hurt anyone
Deal peacefully with anger, insults, and disagreements

Way to soar, Eagles!
