Building a safe, kind, and supportive school environment is a team effort! 💙

We had a fantastic meeting with two wonderful representatives from the team. They walked our team through the core WITS framework, implementation steps, and the amazing ongoing supports available for our students.

Whether it's learning to Walk away, Ignore, Talk it out, or Seek help, we are excited to reinforce these lifelong social-emotional skills across our classrooms this year.

Huge thank you to the WITS team for taking the time to equip us as we continue creating a caring, inclusive school community! 🏫✨

🍂 Our adventurous kindergarteners explored the school forest and discovered what fall looks, feels, sounds and smells like! 🍁 We had so much fun using four of our senses to explore the wonders of autumn!
