I hope everyone enjoyed their snow day on monday. \u00a0We have been talking about how the African Americans celebrate their holiday Kwanzaa. \u00a0We also went to Life Town for the first time this school year. \u00a0It was fun for all and we loved eating pizza. \u00a0Thank you to all for allowing this wonderful experience occur. \u00a0Thank you for all who attended our field trip to life town. \u00a0We have a great time and everyone acted like ladies and gentlemen. \u00a0I was so proud of everyone.<\/p>\n

This month, our special education staff discussed with our students the importance of Person First Language. When we are communicating with and about people with disabilities, we should always use Person First Language. This form of language places emphasize on the person, NOT the disability.\u00a0 All people have individualized goals, interests, and abilities, whether they have a disability or not. Person First Language allows us to look at these individual characteristics rather than the disability. An example of Person First Language is “child with autism” rather than “autistic child.” Raising awareness for this type of language will ensure that ALL students feel comfortable and valued at our school.<\/b><\/div>\n

Stay warm and have a great weekend<\/div>\n
