Talking to Children About Violence: Tips for Parents and Teachers
We share information with our students on how we maintain a safe and supportive learning environment for everyone here at WCH. We also want to provide them with opportunities to share and express their feelings appropriately when tragedy or violence occurs. We encourage parents to read through this resource and reach out with questions or concerns. Your child's social, emotional and physical safety is our priority!
