Our students voiced that they wanted to continue building relationships during the school day. As a result, we are excited to announce that our well-being day will take place during early release (half-days) once each quarter (Sept 26, Nov 25, Feb 27, 4th Quarter TBD during MCAP testing).
Teachers will be given a choice board containing multiple activities they can share with each period to participate in. During Well-being time, students will have a chance to get to know others, learn new ways to socialize, and build positive relationships with staff and peers.
