Attending school has a huge impact on student success!
Attending school regularly helps children feel better about school—and themselves. Start building this habit in preschool so they learn right away that going to school on time, every day is important. Good attendance will help children do well in high school, college, and at work.

General Announcements
Is it Bullying?
When someone say or does something unintentionally hurtful and they do it once, that's RUDE .
When someone says or does something intentionally hurtful and they do it once, that's MEAN.

Great Kindness Challenge January 27-31
The Great Kindness Challenge is a PreK-12 program intended to spread kindness in schools all over the world. Teachers, and community members will come together to make the world a kinder place.This program will empower our student to create a culture of kindness.
At the heart of The Great Kindness Challenge is the simple belief that kindness is strength. We also believe that as an action is repeated, a habit is formed. With the Great Kindness Challenge checklist in hand, students have the opportunity to repeat kind act after kind act.
Teaching children how to Express Emotions Effectively
Give your child options so they can choose how to act out their feelings.
How do you want the people in your family to show or tell others when they feel angry, frustrated or sad? Is it okay in your family to stomp your feet or squeeze a pillow when upset? How about asking for a hug? Talking about your emotions and exploring different ways to express your feelings will give children (and adults!) ideas for what they can do when they have challenging feelings at home.
Model how you want your child to express different emotions.
Children pick up on adults’ emotions. Share your feelings with your child and explain what you are doing to manage your emotions (e.g., “I’m feeling frustrated right now, so I need to have a little quiet time to calm down before I’m ready to talk about it.”)
Support your child’s feelings in the moment. When children have challenging feelings, it’s often hard for them to listen, pay attention, and learn. Give children the time and space they need to calm down. After your child has calmed down, talk about what happened and what they might do differently next time.
