Ms. McAuliffe, our School Counselor, has begun visiting classrooms to facilitate discussions about the importance of a positive and supportive school culture where ALL students feel school pride AND promise to:
- Include others in group situations,
- Participate in play that does not involve teasing,
- Speak up for others
- Accept others for their differences, and
- Forgive others if they make poor choices
Ms. McAuliffe taught students about the importance of becoming helpful BYSTANDERS if they see others being treated unfairly to ensure that every student feels good about being here.
In the coming month, she will begin to implement a school-wide Kindness initiative and program that will call ALL students to become powerful in making a positive difference in our school by learning and keeping a promise to treat others as they would like to be treated. More information on this initiative and the behaviors we hope to celebrate will be coming in future St. Michael's Minutes.
