What a wonderful way to wrap up the year at Friendship Central School! Our final Spirit Assembly was filled with talent, inspiration, and heartfelt moments.
We were treated by two of our talented students who showcased their skills on the clarinet. What a beautiful celebration of the arts!
Ms. Tavernier led one last unforgettable lesson, reminding us all of the power of mindset with her message: “Change your thoughts, change your life.” Students actively participated by acting out how to maintain a positive mindset and embrace creativity, bringing energy, laughter, and meaningful reflection to the assembly.
We also proudly recognized our Eagle Wing winners Earl and Lucia for exemplifying respect, responsibility, and resilience. Congratulations on being such outstanding role models for our school community!
The highlight of the day was honoring Ms. Tavernier in what was her final Spirit Assembly before her retirement at the beginning of next year. She was celebrated with thoughtful gifts and heartfelt videos from students whose lives she has touched. Ms. Tavernier truly cares about every student, often sharing her love of music with her guitar and inspiring everyone to be their best selves.
Her impact on Friendship Central School is lasting, and while she will be greatly missed, her lessons and spirit will continue to live on in our school community.
Thank you, Ms. Tavernier, for everything you’ve given to our students and our school!
