SUCCESS ROOTED IN A COMMUNITY OF LEARNERS
Friday, March 3, 2023
Greetings Families,
Thank you for taking the time to attend a conference this week. We know how busy your schedules are and don't take it for granted when you make the time to meet with us to discuss your child's progress. If you were unable to attend a conference this week, please know that you can reach out to your child's teacher at any time to learn about how you can best support them at home.
Have a great weekend!

Counseling Corner News
ATTENTION 5th Grade Parents
During the month of March, our school counselors will offer lessons from the Lifelines Prevention curriculum in our fifth-grade classes. One of the main objectives of this curriculum is to encourage our students to identify trusted adults in their lives to whom they can turn if they have concerns about themselves or their friends. The program curriculum includes developmentally appropriate class discussions, student handouts, videos, and corresponding activities. The purpose of the Lifelines Prevention program is to provide accurate and relevant information about youth suicide, learn how to respond to suicidal friends, and where to go for help.
