  1. A message for ALL students: The breakfast cart, as you know, is a way to ensure that everyone at the school has access to food before and during school. We are happy for EVERYONE to have a snack when they need one.  We also want to make sure that there is food throughout the day and right now, some people are taking multiple items at a time. PLEASE only take ONE snack from the cart. If you are hungry and need more food, speak to an adult who can help you find a meal.  

 

  1. Tomorrow is Red Dress Day. This is a day to honor the missing and murdered indigenous women, girls and 2 spirit. If you can, wear red, or a red dress to show support. 1000s of indigenous women and girls have gone missing and are 12 times more likely to be victims of murder then nonindigenous women.
