Heads up for next week! ❤️🖤🤍
Our guidance counselors are helping BES participate in the Start With Hello Week movement by Sandy Hook Promise. A national annual event dedicated to making new social connections and creating a sense of belonging among youth.
You can read more about it here https://www.sandyhookpromise.org/what-we-do/programs/school-climate-safety/start-with-hello/week/
We’re excited to celebrate Start With Hello Week and encourage our Bulldogs to build connections, include others, and help create a school where everyone feels like they belong! 🐾
Each day, students will have a special way to participate:
Meet-N-Greet Monday: Meet someone new and say hello!
Upstander Tuesday: Recognize ways we can stand up for and support others.
Wear Green Wednesday: GREEN OUT! Wear green as a symbol of unity and solidarity with Sandy Hook Promise.
Trusted Adult Thursday: Show appreciation for a trusted adult who supports you.
Know Your Classmates Friday: Learn something new about the people around you and build new connections!
Sometimes something as simple as “Hello!” can help someone feel seen, welcomed, and included. Let’s make it a great week, Bulldogs! 🐾❤️💙
