Do you have one hour a week to share with a child? Become a LINKS Lunch Buddy mentor!
Mentors visit schools once a week during lunch hours to spend time with a child in a pre-assigned area. Activities may include eating, playing games, making crafts, talking, going to recess, and more. We aim to provide social-emotional support to elementary students who could benefit from extra one-on-one attention.
Our Art Directors and Art Docents have been hard at work facilitating art lessons and watching our students use their imagination and fearlessly create! The kids have told us they are having so much fun with these monthly sessions. We are excited for the new lessons we have lined up for the coming months!
Call for materials: please save any magazines for us! You can bring them to your teacher and they will help us collect these supplies for future art lessons.
District tip line
Safety is one of our district’s top priorities. To keep our school community safe, our district uses Vector Alert, a tip reporting service that allows students, staff and parents to submit safety concerns to our administration five different ways:
App: Search for “Vector Alert” in the App Store to download for free
If an administrator is not nearby or available to take your tip, you and your child can easily report tips on bullying, harassment, drugs, vandalism, threats of violence or any safety issue you're concerned about through Vector Alert. When you submit a tip, be sure to use our district’s identification code: 1342 in your communication.
Every tip Vector Alert receives about our district is immediately logged in the system and our administration is notified so that they can investigate and take appropriate action. And, tips may also be submitted anonymously if you prefer.
Together, using Vector Alert, we can make our district a safer place to work and learn! Thanks in advance for your support.
