Students and staff, wear your dots on Monday, Sept. 16! International Dot Day is a global celebration of creativity, courage, and collaboration, inspired by Peter H. Reynold's book "The Dot".
"The Dot" is the story of a caring teacher who dares a doubting student to trust in her own abilities by being brave enough to make her mark. What begins with a small dot on a piece of paper becomes a breakthrough in confidence and courage, igniting a journey of self-discovery and sharing.
