The Principal’s Book Chat
for October is The Velveteen Rabbit. This book chat is eligible for kindergarten through second grade students. We will meet to discuss the book and have a fun activity and themed snack on
Monday, October 24 at 1:45 in the cafeteria.
Don’t forget to wear orange tomorrow (10/19) to unite against bullying and promote inclusion.
October is anti-bullying month. Our guidance team is hosting a “Be the I in Kind” campaign. This campaign will include filling
students buckets on grade level posters in the cafeteria. Buckets are “filled” by noting kind acts with a post it notes on the poster. Please discuss kindness with your student at home as well.
