Student of the Week
Krina
Special Thanks to the PTO and the Literacy Committee for providing the assembly, Bucket Fillers. Bucket Filling is kindness in action. It creates a safer, kinder, more respectful school culture where children are ready to learn. The 3 key ideas we learned are filling buckets (treating ourselves and others well), dipping into buckets (disrespect or meanness in action to ourselves and others), and placing a lid on our bucket (helps us cope with bucket dipping remarks or actions).
