During November and December, all classes in all grades/programs will participate in a body safety lesson. The purpose of this lesson is to help students to:

• Develop knowledge, decision making skills, and behaviors which promote safe living in the home, school, and community

• Learn skills for self-protection and identifying child abuse and neglect

• Learn skills for asking for help for self and others and practice reporting to a trusted adult

• Engage in positive and appropriate interactions with peers and adults.

If you have any questions or concerns about the topics that will be covered, please contact me, your child’s classroom teacher, or the school counselor.
