UNITY DAY
UNITY DAY
Our district participates in Unity Day every October. Students and staff wear orange to symbolize a stand against bullying. Unity Day is a time for us to come together to promote kindness, acceptance, and inclusion. This year, some of our local businesses joined our cause by wearing orange, posting signs in their windows, and providing special orange treats for their visitors.

Start with HELLO Week at SCHS
Start with HELLO Week at SCHS
Start with Hello Week focuses on Social-Emotional Learning as well as the importance of connections and helping others. Throughout the week, students participated in Start with Hello BINGO to promote a culture of kindness and inclusion. The BINGO card had tasks that included writing a thank you to someone, checking in on someone you think is having a bad day, reaching out to a remote learner in your class, and giving a compliment to someone. We also did a word cloud to show what Inclusion means to the staff and students. The Choose Joy Cart was a fun way to spread joy and increase connection with students and staff.
