Hunt A+ Arts Elementary School
The District is committed to providing all students with a safe learning environment in which everyone is treated with dignity and respect. The District’s Anti-Bullying, Harassment, and Hazing policy defines bullying and harassment as well as the procedures for reporting and investigating bullying or harassment complaints.
Bullying and harassment are defined as any electronic, written, verbal, or physical act or conduct toward a student which is based on any actual or perceived trait or characteristic of the student and which creates an objectively hostile school environment that meets one or more of the following conditions:
· *Places the student in reasonable fear of harm to the student’s person or property.
· * Has a substantially detrimental effect on the student’s physical or mental health.
· * Has the effect of substantially interfering with a student’s academic performance.
· * Has the effect of substantially interfering with the student’s ability to participate in or benefit from the services, activities, or privileges provided by a school.
If your student feels they are being bullied or harassed, encourage your student to visit with the student involved and tell them to stop. They should also tell a teacher, principal, or trusted adult at their school. An online discrimination, bullying, harassment, and hazing complaint form is also available on the District’s website and may be completed by the student, parent, or school employee.
Parent volunteers are needed to join the District’s Grassroots Advocacy Committee. As a volunteer, you will receive email updates about important legislative events that could impact public education and be asked to contact our legislators to advocate for our schools. Tips are provided to help volunteers connect with legislators. Volunteer today and let your voice be heard! Contact Communications@live.siouxcityschools.com to volunteer.
EXERCISE Exercise is important in helping us stay healthy because it makes our heart pump our blood throughout our body. This brings oxygen to all our body cells which keeps us healthy and keeps our hearts strong. It also keeps us from getting sick and having colds. Exercise improves our minds and how
we feel about life...it helps us to be happier!
YOGA
Yoga is a form of exercise that involves stretching out muscles. It also helps us to bring
more oxygen into our lungs which goes to our body cells.
Try to do some stretches everyday. They are fun
and easy to do.
WALK-
ING AND
RUNNING These are two of the most effective forms of exercise.
Walking fast and jogging or running helps our hearts to
pump faster and burns calories. If we walk or run 15-20
minutes everyday, we will help our bodies be in great shape!
BIKING Riding our bikes seems like a fun thing to do, but it actually
is a great form of exercise as well. It helps the oxygen in
our blood get to our body cells and also makes our muscles
lean and strong...especially in our legs.
JUMPING
ROPE Jumping rope is an excellent form of exercise. We use all
our muscles and bones when we jump rope. It also makes
our hearts and lungs work harder which in turn keeps us
healthier. Try to do different games when jumping rope
to make it more fun!
