Our *NEW* Burris 3rd Grade Teacher John Lewis recently sent out a PSA reminding us all of the importance of SLEEP as related to learning! Enough sleep helps us ALL with our physical and mental health, too! What new routines and goals around sleep can we all GROW together this year? Excellent sleep habits align with the MCS Core Value of Wellbeing! #HereWeGrow
