In November the teachers at Van Walleghem School reviewed the OLWEUS Bullying Prevention Program. Throughout December all classrooms will be holding class meetings that will focus on getting to know each other better, learning about bullying, discussing and problem solving bullying situations, and working together to prevent bullying at school.

Class meetings help build a strong class community, allow everyone to feel heard, and can help resolve problems before they become bigger. Throughout the remainder of the year teachers will talk about other issues of importance with their classes as they arise.

I’d like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy and healthy holiday season!

Sincerely,

Ms. K. Lewis
