This week...
Parent and Family Workshop- Stress Management
On Monday, December 2nd at 9am we will have a Parent and Family Workshop around Stress Management. You will learn about the types of stress, common stressors, symptoms of stress, and stress management strategies.
Parent and Family Workshop- De-escalation and Restorative Practices
On Tuesday, December 3rd at 9am we will have a Parent and Family Workshop around De-escalation and Restorative Practices. You will learn about a set of techniques to defuse potentially violent or tense situations, as well as restorative practices that help students learn appropriate behaviors. These strategies for students are designed to prevent conflicts from escalating into disruptive or even dangerous situations. By focusing on calming techniques, both verbal and non-verbal, we can guide students back to a state of calm and re-engage them in the learning process.
Friendly Reminders

Restrooms are available during lunch and throughout all passing periods. Please note that bathrooms will be closed during the first and last 10 minutes of each class period.
