This CTE Month, we’re shining a special spotlight on our two incredible Project Lead the Way teachers at Paw Paw School. Their classrooms are places where curiosity turns into problem solving, where creativity meets engineering, and where students discover they’re capable of more than they ever imagined.
Thank you for bringing STEM to life in ways that are hands-on, challenging, and deeply meaningful.
Morgan County Schools is lucky to have you—and so are our students.
A special thank you to Ms. Bennett and Ms. Helmick for your leadership and continued support of Career & Technical Education in Morgan County Schools.
Every Child, Every Day

Kindness is the Capturing Kids Hearts Theme for February
What is Kindness?
Kindness is the ability and willingness to express care and compassion for others. Kindness is a choice to use our time, talent, and resources to better the lives of others and the world through genuine acts of love, compassion, generosity, and service.
Why focus on Kindness?
Kindness boosts positive emotions. Acts of kindness create neural pathways that enhance feelings of well-being and the natural flow of feel-good endorphins and neurotransmitters.
Kindness is self-replicating. When we perform an act of kindness, it is likely to encourage others to act in a similar way.
Kindness reduces stress and anxiety. Kindness promotes positive relationships with other people. Anything that helps you to build bonds with other people helps decrease anxiety.
Kindness in Action:
Celebrate small things. Start each day with Good Things as a class. Publicly and privately affirm kind and thoughtful actions and attitudes.
Create opportunities for students to affirm each other regularly. Once a week, dedicate time for students to write notes of affirmation to classmates and school staff members.
Model Kindness. Be mindful of body language, tone, and mindset. Kindness is learned by example!
The Math Field Day that was scheduled for this week has been rescheduled to Tuesday, February 3, 2026.
Thank you for your understanding.
