Lead the Change Club is today at lunch in the library.

 

Tomorrow is anti-bullying day. Bullying prevention takes a united effort of students and adults. It is about each individual being willing to say that bullying will not be accepted and that everyone has a right to be safe at school and in the community. The slogan for this day is “lift each other up.” Please wear pink tomorrow to raise awareness and help make a difference in our school and community.
