Families,

During November, we will host Kindness Week! Most of this will be done in the Café and at recess so it will not disrupt classroom instruction. You can help at home by promoting random acts of kindness, pointing out kind things you see your child do, modeling kind behaviors, and by talking to your child about the kindness you see in others. Thanks so much for your support!!
