Happy Monday everyone! We hope you all had a great weekend. We have some exciting events happening this week.

Cell Phones: Parents, please remind students about our school cell phone policy that phones are ONLY allowed before and after school, not during. Phones need to be out of sight and silent during the school day. As always, if you need to get a hold of your student please call the office and do not text them. We can get messages to your students quickly if needed. If students need to call home they should come to the office to do so.

NAMI Classes for Parents @ El Dorado
Basics classes are for families with children and adolescents experiencing emotional and/or behavioral difficulties. The valuable class enables families to better understand their children’s difficulties and learn to cope effectively. The curriculum includes brain biology, diagnosis and treatments, communication skills and crisis preparation, navigating mental health, school and juvenile justice systems, advocacy and self care. Classes are taught by NAMI members/parents who have lived experience. Preregistration is required. I am taking all registrations by email or phone. Email: susanh@namicontracosta.org or 925-262-3404.
