Arrival Reminder

Hello Division 13 Families,

I hope everyone is doing well! We have been off to a great start to our kindness month and having a lot of conversations about what it means to be kind to ourselves and to our community.

I wanted to share a friendly reminder that our school bell rings at 8:50 and Instruction begins at 8:55. In the last month we have had quite a number of people arriving late to school. I recognize that mornings can be a challenge, but it can be disruptive to the start of our day when students are coming in late. I like to have the first 10 minutes for students to chat, say hello, and do a calm activity together before we begin our day. It helps to set the tone for the day ahead.

Here is a photo of our bulletin in the hallway. We made some heart balloons and came up with some words that described what kindness looks like to us.

 

 

With Kindness,

Ms. Raymond
