Leader In Me
This month's habit is Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw
This habit encourages students to take care of their body, mind, heart, and spirit so they can stay balanced, refreshed, and ready to grow. When we regularly renew ourselves, we’re better equipped to lead and learn.
Order School Supplies Online with Impacks
The Glenn Duffy Elementary + Impacks partnership is a school supply kit program that allows families to pre-order all required classroom materials for the upcoming school year in one convenient package. Parents select their child’s grade, and Impacks provides a kit that includes all teacher-approved supplies, with a few exceptions like gym shoes. Kits are shipped directly to the school for pickup at Open House.
In addition to simplifying back-to-school prep, the program includes a fundraising element. During checkout, parents can choose to donate, and Impacks will match the first $5 of each donation. All matched funds go directly toward supporting school needs. The order deadline is June 30.
