In December we focus on the character trait of empathy...thinking of others - considering different points of view and treating each other with care and kindness.
Especially at this time of the year we are encouraged to show gratitude for what we have and think of how we can help others. This year our staff and students have decided to organize a Food Drive for their December spirit activity and demonstrate the spirit of giving.
Each class is encouraged to collect non-perishable food items which will be donated to our local food bank. Classes will collect spirit points for their efforts but most of all they will be able to feel good about doing something to help others in need.
Please help us collect as much as possible by sending food donations to school between November 30-December 11th. Also, families attending our up coming Family Movie Night on December 10th are asked to also bring a food item to add to our Food Drive.
Together we can make a difference to a family in need and demonstrate to our children what empathy and compassion really mean. Thank you!
