-What are some characteristics of a team player?
-How did leadership skills affect your team?



Mrs. Laib’s English classes were working on One Word Resolutions for the new year. One Word is a book by Jon Gordon all staff at TL-M were given at the beginning of the school year. Ask students: What is the One Word they are going to live their lives by in 2022? Why did they choose this word? What is one "I will" statement that you wrote about this word?





Tonight’s C squad boy’s basketball game against Nedrose set for 4:30 has been canceled. JV and V against Washburn are still scheduled to begin at 6:00 with two quarters of JV, Varsity to begin at the conclusion of the JV game.
