Handle with Care
If your family is experiencing difficulties at home, I would like to provide some additional support at school. I understand you may not always be able to provide details and that is okay. If your child is coming to school after a difficult morning, night, or weekend, please email me "Handle with Care". I will make it a priority to check in on them.
