Before Mid-Winter break our students were treated to a presentation by the Navajo Magician, Brian Yazzie. They were so amazed by the tricks and illusions that he performed. He encouraged students to believe in themselves, follow their dreams even if they seem impossible, and to make good choices that will affect their futures. It was a great way to head into the break. I think everyone had a great time, and just enjoyed laughing and watching the excitement of the kids.
