Creating a safe environment for all learners is in everyone’s best interest. In an effort to aid parents in the reporting of bullying behaviors in the school setting, a new form has been added to the school’s website. It is titled, Bullying Report Form in the Information section of the Elementary site. Forms should be completed thoroughly to make the investigation process as efficient as possible. It is helpful to have as many witnesses/bystanders names and grade levels (if possible) to get a complete and clear view of the bullying incident. All reports will be received by Darren Schuler, Corey Lahr, and Melissa Scott.</p><p> Please make sure your child brings his/her home folder and weekly planner to school every day. Thanks!</p><p> F.R.O.G. awards are given to children for demonstrating Friendship, Respect and responsibility, Outstanding citizenship, and Great behavior.</p>
