Some parents requested a presentation to help them navigate their child's social media accounts and learn about internet safety. Ms. Grier will provide a virtual presentation to parents in three locations across the Keys. All are welcome and encouraged to attend. The presentation can only be viewed in these locations, not from home.

Officer Nick and Principal Jannes are speaking to students in grades 3-5 regarding safe school practices. There has been an increase in students playing violent video games or using toy weapons at home. This leads to discussions about guns, knives, and violent behavior at school. Our discussions reinforced that conversations about violence and related physical items are not permitted at school nor are students allowed to search the internet for anything related to weapons or violence.

We also reinforced "See Something, Say Something" to keep our school community safe. There have been several instances of vandalism in our G-Wing boys' bathroom. Students caught defacing or destroying school property will be charged for the damage and suspended from school. Students understand that they should remove themselves from these situations and report the violators to the staff.

We are saddened to share that one of our second-grade students, Asher, lost his father unexpectedly last week. Asher's mom, Molly Wakeham, is our Library/Media Manager. We are collecting donations to help them with expenses during this difficult time. Every little bit helps.
