News from our School Counselor Claire Caldwell
Everyone experiences stress! Preparing children to handle it effectively is a vital skill. Teaching and practicing healthy coping skills brings stability and confidence. Students should know that storms will pass and that they are strong enough to weather them. Allow your children experience stress and problem solve in order to manage it. Avoid eliminating all risk for them. When we allow appropriate risks and teach essential skills, we build resilient kids.

Message from our wonderful Librarian
Parents,
May 6th is the last day to check out library books. All books must be returned by May 20th. After May 20th, if a book has not been returned, it will be marked as lost and a fine will be assessed. Students will be eligible for the drawing for the big monkey if they have returned their books on time. Please assist your student in returning all their books by May 20th.
I will be having summer library on Tuesdays, time still to be determined.
Thank you,
