Start With Hello Week
What is Start With Hello Week? | Sandy Hook Promise
In Honor of 'Start With Hello' Wear GREEN on Thursday
Why Green?
Wear green as a symbol of unity and solidarity with Sandy Hook Promise. Green is the Sandy Hook Elementary School color and a symbolic color of change. By wearing green Thursday, our school and community is making a promise to Start with Hello!
