Kindness Week
Maybe during that week, a class or classes could have a kindness project to do as a whole class as well to reinforce the lessons? I'll do a check in to see how planning is progressing at Wednesday staff meeting.
ECE Open House
Folks it is key that we do all we can to get behind these events and support them. At a minimum, we need to maintain current enrollment numbers and at best we need to grow. If not, cuts will need to happen. We are at the break even point with enrollment and needed faculty and staff. Please do all you can to help.
