Student Assembly
We will be having a guest speaker, Chad Sheehan, put on an assembly for grades K-2 and 3-5th, as well as middle school and high school. Mr. Sheehan specializes in school safety. He delivers a developmentally appropriate message for students. A separate letter will be sent home to all students. Contact Mrs. Abi with any questions that you have.
Five Nights at Freddy's
We have had several parents inquire about the cartoon game/video, "Five Nights at Freddy's". Although this is a cartoon and marketed for children, there have been reports about the increase in anxiety, violent thoughts/behaviors and nightmares when children watch or play this game. Common Sense Parenting says it is a "Terrifying psychological thriller that is too much for kids." Their rating for the program is for children 12 years and older.
The dates for the above program have been changed - they haven't started yet so there is still time to register if anyone is interested!
