La Junta Primary School Awards Ceremony 2023 - Save the date!

Have you heard the buzz about LJPS's Walking Team? The idea started in our Life Skills Department and from there was brought to life. There are approximately 130 to 135 students participating. After the first week students walked a total of 156 miles combined. Every lap the students walk, they earn a bead toward a keychain they can make on their own time as an incentive. A Social Contract was created by the students involved and they came up with: - Encourage Others - Be Helpful - Be Kind - Respect Others Personal Space - No Hurtful Words - Good Sportsmanship and last but certainly not least... - HAVE FUN!!!
