Character Counts!Provost students are showing how much good character they have! A different "Character Counts" theme is chosen each month as we recognize students from every class for having a characteristic trait that is helpful in achieving success both academically and outside of education. The last Character Counts assembly was in September. The theme for September's Character Counts was "Tenacious". Students were recognized in the assembly and recieved a certificate and vouchers from loacl businesses. Be sure to check out the display of our Character Counts students up on the wall across from the office from month to month throughout the school year! Every student at Provost can show us how much 'Character Counts!'
