We're excited to share that we've just completed our first two units of Second Step - Social Emotional Learning with your children! In Unit 1, lessons focused on Mindset and Goals, helping our students develop valuable skills for growth and self-awareness. In Unit 2, we delved into Recognizing Bullying & Harassment, fostering a safe and inclusive environment for all. Additionally, our students have been actively engaged in learning about our BARK expectations: being safe, accountable, respectful, and kind as a Bulldog at school. These principles are essential in shaping positive behaviors and interactions within our school community. Thank you for your ongoing support in nurturing your child's growth as a middle schooler.
