INFO @ ALTA VISTA
The Be Seen and Heard© child abuse prevention and reporting program includes three follow-up videos per grade level, each running between ~2 and 5 minutes. These videos are designed to reinforce the concepts and strategies that were covered during the assemblies we held back in October. These videos should be shown over the coming months, preferably one video per month.
Please note that any student who was opted out of the assemblies needs to be excused from watching these videos.
The videos for all grade levels can be found here. Password: CVI19-20
If there is a student disclosure, please follow these guidelines.MUSIC SCHEDULE
With the many special activities planned during the week prior to Winter Break, we will not have Music classes on December 17-19.
CATHY'S SCHEDULE
I will not be here on December 17-19th. Bitsey Stark will be on campus as the acting principal on these days. I will also be off campus most of the day on December 11th. Please feel free to email or text me with any questions.
