Kincaid’s Class Motto
Today is a day to achieve.
If I work hard, I will succeed.
I can learn! I will learn!
It’s all up to me.
No disrespect or bullying allowed,
Making my school and community proud!
The KINCAID Garden
In my garden I will plant five rows of peas:
I can count on you for:
Promptness,
Preparedness,
Productivity,
Politeness,
Positivity.
Then I will put in four rows of lettuce:
Let us be honest,
Let us have integrity,
Let us be responsible,
Let us be respectful to one another.
Next to them I planted three rows of squash:
Squash gossip,
Squash criticism, and
Squash negativity.
No garden is complete without turnips:
Turn up for class,
Turn up with a smile,
Turn up with ideas and questions
Turn up with determination.
You can count on me for:
