Students at Provo Peaks Elementary were welcomed into a sea of excitement during a Moana-themed school assembly designed to build school spirit and introduce what it means to be a PUMA.
Wearing leis, students made their way down a red carpet as teachers and staff greeted them with high fives. The school went all-in on the theme, with staff dressed as characters from Moana, tropical decorations throughout the assembly, and Principal Ryan McCarty joining the fun dressed as Maui.
Beyond the costumes and decorations, the assembly focused on the characteristics Provo Peaks wants students to develop throughout the school year.
What It Means to Be a PUMA
Students watched a Moana-inspired video created by the school highlighting the Provo Peaks PUMAS acronym:
Persevere through Challenge
Unite in Collaboration
Make Goals
Ask Questions
Self Reflect
The message gave students a fun and memorable way to think about how they can approach learning, challenges, relationships, and personal growth throughout the year.
With plenty of cheers, high fives, school spirit, and PUMA pride, Provo Peaks is setting the course for a great year ahead.
