PARENT INFO NIGHT:  BODY & PERSONAL SAFETY PROGRAM
The Parent Information Night: Body and Personal Safety Program is scheduled for tomorrow, Tuesday, November 4, 2014, 6:00 - 7:00 at Eagle Elementary.  Elementary parents are invited to attend this meeting to learn about the age-appropriate lessons that will be taught to your children this school year by the elementary school counselors. Unfortunately, recent counts show that sexual abuse of children takes place more often than we would like to believe. As a result, our children need to be taught assertiveness and self-protection skills to prevent such tragedies. This program is presented in a non-threatening, informative way.
 
Parents, please join us so that you can see the videos and hear about the lessons that will be presented at each grade level. For the lessons we will be using the same videos as last year.
