Today's Bengal Spotlight Featured Department- Although both of these staff members do much of their work behind the scenes, they play a tremendous and impactful role with the students at CCCMS, and throughout the TLEC.
Mrs. Begnoche is our School Psychologist, who is highly involved in evaluating, testing, and assisting students with their Independent Education Plans. Mrs. Begnoche works collaboratively with teachers, and parents to set students up for success at CCCMS, and beyond.
This week is National School Social Worker Week! We would like to honor Dana Rott, TLEC Social Worker for all the things she does for students, families, and teachers at CCCMS, and throughout the TLEC. Her daily schedule includes meeting with students and families in five different school districts and providing positive support and assistance to these families. Mrs. Rott does so many things to benefit families, that it's hard to keep track of everything she does. We appreciate her work, and how she works to empower every student and every family she works with. Thanks Mrs. Rott!

WOW is the first word that comes to mind after hearing Kevin Olson deliver his strong words of wisdom today to our Bengal students! His message was so important for our students to hear! We hope each of them walked away today with a different perspective on difficult things in their life they can not change or control. Please ask your student tonight about the messages of hope and strength that Kevin shared with them today. Below is his website with more information:

Thank you so much, Kevin!
Today's Bengal Spotlight Featured PAWS is Mrs. Argo's class. Mrs. Argo's PAWS Class is a very diverse bunch with many different interests. They enjoy playing games like Silent Ball and Pictionary, but also like a good Dodgeball challenge. They are usually up for an all-school PAWS Challenge but are frustrated with getting 2nd place on a number of occasions. They finally achieved 1st Place status in the door decorating contest this past December! Woohoo! They understand that perseverance pays off.
Good Luck to our Scholar's Bowl team today!
