Dear Stewards,

Stewards are people who take care of others by taking care of things. At our school, all of us are stewards. That means we pick up after ourselves, take care of things, and take pride in how our school and classroom looks. Most importantly, stewardship means we use things so they last for other people. Our responsibility is not only to the people in our community right now. We also have a responsibility to those who who will some day be in our school. We need to take care of our school so it’s even better for those people, whomever they may be.

Today, we’ll talk about how we can show stewardship of our classroom  and our school, and we’ll talk about how the ethic of stewardship can be carried to other parts of our lives and our world.

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
