Name Calling?

This week our students are participating in a nationwide awareness program called No Name Calling Week! This week the curriculum in Family Life classes will focus on channeling positive energy into the words we choose when interacting with our friends and family. Students will be making and wearing buttons that expresses this week's theme. The week flows nicely with our character education theme for January--Empathy. We are asking students to treat and speak to others as they would like others to speak and treat them. Sound somewhat familiar!? It is a simple rule that has been around for thousands of years and transcended many, many cultures. Please discuss the importance of positive words with your son or daughter, it does make a difference when they hear it from you!

Till next time...
