Happy Holiday's Eagle Families!
As we enter into the busy season of holiday gatherings, traditions and fun remember to leave room for downtime. Just as adults, children need time to reset now and then. Sometimes the holiday's can become overwhelming, as resilient as they are, children need us as the adults to help protect their boundaries and show understanding when things becoming to stimulating. Give you, and your family grace and build in those reset days as a family, and even one on one time with your little ones.

K-Kids Peer Mentoring
1st & 2nd grade K-Kids have been visiting Kindergarten classrooms and role modeling positive play, good choices and conflict resolution strategies. In November they were able to support Kinders in making Veteran's Day cards to share with local Veterans.
2nd grade K-Kids are doing a FABULOUS job being recess buddies, supporting Kinders at recess throughout the month on positive play and choices. The Kinders love seeing them present on the playground.
