We have now begun our yearly Building School Community program. The purpose of this program is to build a sense of community amongst our staff and students by providing opportunities to meet in mixed grade families and to provide an opportunity to reinforce with our students the social/emotional character traits concepts. Our first monthly theme is KINDNESS. In the family meeting last week, students discussed the ripple effect of kindness and how one small act can insight kind acts from others.
For the next 4 weeks will be reinforcing the idea of
kindness with quotes, mantras, and activities. This week's quote is
"Kindness gives birth to kindness" - Sophocles. Our mantra is "I AM KIND" and classes will be discussing ways they can show kindness to each other.
