Each year Capitol Elementary celebrates DOT Day. Capitol Counselor Barbara Utley hosts the event after students learn about having self-esteem, perseverance, and creativity. In the book The Dot by Peter H Reynolds, children learn that their creativity can take off with a single dot. Mrs. Utley teaches that even though something might be hard, the first step is "trying," and she helps students understand that it is okay to "fail." Students enjoyed the book, creating dots, dressing in dots, and making their mark today! Thank you, Mrs. Utley, for boosting courage!
