    We ‘R’ Spartans

    “We ‘R’ Spartans” is a school-wide citizenship building program designed to encourage positive behaviors and social responsibility at Southern Lehigh Intermediate School. Citizenship behaviors are intended to promote student awareness, accountability, and success across the larger school environment (in classrooms, common areas, on the playground, and during school travel).
