| Theme for 2015-2016~
THINK! This is our theme again for 2015-2016. THINK stands for Trustworthy, Honesty, Integrity, Non-violent, Kindness. We will emphasize and recognize our students when they commit to this belief. We want our students to make the most of each day by giving their best, seeking ways to help our school be a better place, always striving to improve, and entering the building each day with a great attitude. Please encourage your children to THINK each day before they arrive at school.
Mr. Chambers

 It is time for Banana Splits groups to begin meeting. For those of you unfamiliar with the Banana Splits program, it is a support group for students who have experienced a change in family structure. This change could include a divorce, separation, living with a stepparent, foster parent, etc. Situations such as these can be very stressful for both children and their families. The Banana Splits group provides a safe place for students to share their thoughts and feelings with other children who are dealing with similar issues. The group also provides an opportunity for children to learn ways of coping with the changes taking place in their lives.
The group will meet weekly during the school day for approximately 30 minutes. We will meet for 6 weeks. Our first meeting will be the week of February 8.
All of the students are encouraged to talk about the meetings at home, but to only share what they themselves have learned, not what others have discussed. I lead the groups and parents will be notified of any serious unresolved issues with their child. If you would like your child to participate please email Mrs. Benner at
[email protected] or call at 317-852-1060.
