Bully Prevention Month
All students K-12 will be getting a Bully Prevention Bookmark in October. To raise awareness for Bully Prevention month, there is a link below to 4 quick, one-minute videos and questions that you can discuss with your class. Please do this each Wednesday in October when we also encourage everyone to wear Orange. It's a good reminder to share with students!

Monday Motivation
Kindness is Contagious!
Kindness is contagious. I’m sure you’ve heard of the big movement, Random Acts of Kindness. The basic concept is that you perform a random act of kindness for someone. It can be someone you know or don’t know. It’s amazing how one simple act of kindness can brighten up someone’s whole day. It can offering a cup of coffee, letting someone go in front of you in the copier line, putting an encouraging note in someone’s mailbox, or bringing someone lunch one day. It doesn’t have to be big. There is magic even in the simplest of things. Be the light for others through our actions. When we are kind, we help to make our school a great place to be.
Thoughts to ponder:
What is an act of kindness you can do for someone at our school?
