■FRIDAY, OCT 9 — DAY 5: WEEKEND WRAP-UP & WOOCH YAX!
🦅 PETERSBURG ROCC CHALLENGE — WEEKEND WRAP-UP!
What a fantastic week on the playground! Our Stedman Eagles practiced being Resilient, Open-Minded, Confident, and Connected while using our fixed equipment safely.
When we bring all four traits together, we create Wooch Yax—balance. We take care of ourselves, we take care of each other, and we take care of our shared space.
PETERSBURG COMMUNITY FOCUS: This weekend, notice how your family practices balance out in our town! Whether playing at the park, visiting the library, or spending time outdoors, let's take care of each other and our community spaces.
Thank you for helping our Eagles ROCC all week long! 🦅✨

Congratulations to our PHS musicians! The following students have been selected for the 2026 Region 5 Southeast Honors Music event in Haines, October 25-27, 2026.
■THURSDAY, OCT 8 — DAY 4: C IS FOR CONNECTED ON THE PLAYGROUND!
🦅 PETERSBURG ROCC CHALLENGE — DAY 4: CONNECTED AT PLAY!
Our final playground trait this week is CONNECTED! In Tlingit, Wooch Yax reminds us that we are all connected and that our choices affect the people and spaces around us.
On the playground, staying connected means:
■ Keeping hands, feet, and bodies safe while giving climbers and swingers space
■ Including others so nobody plays alone
■ Taking care of our shared equipment and space
TODAY’S COMMUNITY CHALLENGE: Connect through play! Ask a student:
■ "How did you make sure someone felt included at recess today?"
■ "How did you help keep the playground safe and fun for everyone?"

■ WEDNESDAY, OCT 7 — DAY 3: C IS FOR CONFIDENT ON THE PLAYGROUND!
🦅 PETERSBURG ROCC CHALLENGE — DAY 3: CONFIDENT AT PLAY!
Today’s Playground ROCC theme is CONFIDENT! Being confident means knowing our playground expectations and making safe choices—even when an adult isn't right next to you.
Confidence on the equipment looks like:
■ Using equipment the way it was designed to be used (like sliding down feet first, not up!)
■ Following adult directions and playground rules
■ Speaking up or finding an adult if something feels unsafe
TODAY’S COMMUNITY CHALLENGE: Encourage positive decision-making! Ask a Stedman Eagle:
■ "What is one safe choice you made on the slides or monkey bars today?"
■ "How do you show confidence when others aren't following expectations?"

■ TUESDAY, OCT 6 — DAY 2: O IS FOR OPEN-MINDED ON THE PLAYGROUND!
🦅 PETERSBURG ROCC CHALLENGE — DAY 2: OPEN-MINDED AT PLAY!
Our Stedman Eagles are continuing their Playground ROCC week! Today, we are focusing on what it means to be OPEN-MINDED on the equipment and in the covered area.
Being open-minded on the playground means recognizing that the equipment belongs to everyone. It’s taking turns, listening to others, and welcoming new playmates.
TODAY’S COMMUNITY CHALLENGE: Practice sharing space and welcoming others! Try asking a student:
■ "Who did you share the playground equipment with today?"
■ "How did you make room for someone new to play?"
When we stay open-minded, recess becomes a kinder, more inclusive space for all!

■ Monday, OCT 5 — DAY 1: R IS FOR RESILIENT ON THE PLAYGROUND!
🦅 PETERSBURG ROCC CHALLENGE — DAY 1: RESILIENT AT PLAY!
This week, our Stedman Eagles are learning what it means to ROCC on the playground by making safe, positive choices on our fixed outdoor equipment. Today’s focus is RESILIENCE!
On the playground, resilience means handling disappointment safely, waiting patiently for a turn on the swings, and solving small problems so play can keep going.
TODAY’S COMMUNITY CHALLENGE: Encourage resilience when things don't go as planned! Ask a Stedman Eagle:
■ "How do you handle waiting for your turn on the swings?"
■ "What's a good choice when a game doesn't go your way?"
Resilience helps us take care of ourselves and stay steady when unexpected moments happen.
