🦅 PETERSBURG ROCC CHALLENGE — DAY 3: CONFIDENT!
This week, Stedman students are looking back at everything it means to ROCC, and we’re challenging all of Petersburg to find that perfect balance with us!
TODAY’S CHALLENGE: Celebrate independence and the power of 'I can do it!' Encourage a student with: ■ “You are in charge of what you learn and do today.”
■ “Try it by yourself first, I know you can do it!”
■ “Look at how much progress you've made by practicing.”
Confidence grows when we take ownership of our choices and step up to challenges without fear.

🦅 PETERSBURG ROCC CHALLENGE — DAY 2: OPEN-MINDED!
This week, Stedman students are looking back at everything it means to ROCC, and we’re challenging all of Petersburg to find that perfect balance with us!
TODAY’S CHALLENGE: Revisit your curiosity and wonder out loud today. Try asking a Stedman Eagle:
