SEL Updates
May is finally here and we have so many things to celebrate. Let's start with Teacher Appreciation Week. Many thanks to all of our teachers. May is Mental Health Awareness Month with National Children's Mental Health Awareness Day on May 9th. The King Center is also kicking off a new initiative, "Students with King." Details are shown below. Finally, let's celebrate the Class of 2020. We are so proud of these students. Let's continue to celebrate them throughout the summer. They certainly deserve it!
Quote of the Day
Introduce a quote that you feel is relevant to what your children may be learning or a shared experience—for example, how the district is handling school closure. You can facilitate a discussion, or have your children share a one-word response to the quote. This gives your children the space to reflect on their beliefs and experiences and to express whether they agree or disagree with the quote. This would also be a time for you to share your opinion on the quote, which will allow your children to have insight into another person's perspective and feelings.
