The Principal's Principles


COOPERATION - Cooperation means getting along with each other and working together to accomplish a common goal.


  • When people cooperate, they can accomplish things they could never do all by themselves.

  • Bees can teach us a lot about cooperating! Each bee has a specific job to do - some gather pollen from flowers, some fight to protect the hive, others take care of the baby bees, and another group takes care of the queen bee. We should be like bees each day and work together and cooperate with one another to achieve our goals.

  • An English poet named John Heywood wrote: "Many hands make light work." When people cooperate, it is easier to accomplish big tasks.

  • Cooperation is a big part of our school day. We cooperate by lining up for the library, straightening the desks for the next day, and cleaning the lunch tables.

"Bee" cooperative this week and make it a terrific week.
