Last week from March 28th - April 1st we celebrated Say Something Awareness Week. During the week our school community participated in Say Something Awareness Week alongside thousands of other schools across the country. Students and staff participated in a week of activities that rasied awareness about how to create a safer, healthier school, and build a culture where students and staff lookout for each other. We focused on how to build a community of upstanders and how to acknowledge the trusted adults in our school.
