Being safe, respectful, kind, and inclusive makes a difference. Say NO to bullying.
In November we celebrate Self-Love in all it's forms.
Self-love is the act of loving oneself for who, how we are, what we like, dislike, and embracing ourselves for being just as we are. It is also the act of just being, and knowing we are wonderful just as we are because there's nobody else just like "us."
This month we also focus on accepting others for being the same or different, promoting kindness, inclusion, and loving others for their unique abilities, culture, heritage, style, gender identity & expression.
We embrace all for the unique contributions they make to this world, society, community, and learning environment.
Because we believe in respecting others, we Say NO to Bullying!
Happy National American Indian Heritage Month, to students, families and staff who celebrate it.

Hair is beautiful; it comes in different textures, colors and styles. Hair can be worn in ways that honor culture and traditions, and for others, its a fun way to express likes, styles and even set trends. Headwear, just like hair is important and honored.
