Here’s the video of the week with what you need to know this week, and below are more details! 🎉 BACK 2 SCHOOL JAM – THIS SATURDAY!Saturday, August 15 | 12:45–1:45 PM It’s time for some FUN—and bring a friend! Friendships are an important part of growing up, and we want our students to have opportunities to build positive friendships while having fun together. We’ll have games, music, karate, an obstacle course, food, prizes, and more! Friends do not need any martial arts experience. We’ll also take a few minutes to talk about doing well in school. Students who consistently earn good grades and would like to participate will have an opportunity to share some of the habits that help them succeed. It’s fun for everyone, and a great opportunity for our students to practice confidence, communication, and leadership. ⚡ BACK 2 SCHOOL FLASH SALE!Our 4-Day Back 2 School Sale ends Thursday, August 13!

We want students walking into their Belt Test prepared, confident, and ready to do their best. 📚 READING CHALLENGE – LAST WEEK!Our Summer Reading Challenge sheets must be returned by Saturday, August 15.
