Traffic Safety Reminders
In continuation of traffic safety information from last week, we want to remind drivers to please stay in your car if you are choosing to drop off or pick up your child(ren) from the main car loop. If you need to get out of your car to unbuckle/buckle or assist your child in any way, please park your car in the parking lot. Even though it seems to take only a few minutes, this holds up cars waiting to turn into the parking lot and subsequently creates traffic congestion around our neighborhoods. Thank you for following school guidelines.
Learning about Native American Heritage Month
Here are some ways to learn about the diversity of Native American Heritage:
- Take a virtual tour through the Sitka Totem Trail located in Sitka, Alaska. Each totem pole is highlighted with multiple close-up photos of various elements, descriptions, and information about the artists and their own tribal identities.
- View what territories, languages, and treaties are and were present in the land we live on today: Native Land Digital
- To explore through the diverse world of Native foods, check out a few recipes from Indigenous Chefs
- Incorporate the following read-alouds during the weekends with Children’s Books by Indigenous Authors
During our Next Time Together...
Based on initial feedback, we will have our Family Listening Circle in person on Wednesday 11/9 from 5-6pm in the library. The purpose of the Listening Circle is to gather your feedback regarding your hopes for child(ren) and ways to support them.
On November 28, Monday from 8:10-9:10 Mrs. Nhan and Mrs. Weiland will be hosting a Pastries with Principals. The topics will be Social Emotional Strategies to support your child and Ways to Communicate with them.
If you haven't done so already, please fill out this survey to help us plan for future Pastries for Principals and to indicate interest in the next Family Circle. https://forms.office.com/r/dj4rRmgFXM

Reporting Safety Concerns
Bullying and safety concerns can always be reported to any staff member at school. The Elementary Level Harassment, Intimidation and Bullying Incident Reporting Form is available to all families in the office. Finally, Bellevue School District also utilizes an anonymous reporting tool called SafeSchools Alert through which anyone can make a verbal or written report of harassment, intimidation or bullying. Information on how to submit a report via any of these methods is available on the district website at www.bsd405.org/help/report.
