Setting the Tone
Students and staff have been hard at work this week as we reach the mid point of first term. By now schedules are set, patterns and routines are established and we are all getting into the swing of school.
How Can I Help You?
Sassy has been a fixture at school this year and is eager to help out everyone she sees! She has also bonded with the preschoolers and loves starting her day with a visit from her special friend Will!
Book Review of the Week
"Six
years ago, Moss Jefferies' father was murdered by an Oakland police
officer. Along with losing a parent, the media's vilification of his
father and lack of accountability has left Moss with near crippling
panic attacks. Now, in his sophomore year of high school, Moss and his
fellow classmates find themselves increasingly treated like criminals in
their own school. New rules. Random lockersearches. Constant
intimidation and Oakland Police Department stationed in their halls.
Despite their youth, the students decide to organize and push back
against the administration. When tensions hit a fever pitch and tragedy
strikes, Moss must face a difficult choice: give in to fear and hate or
realize that anger can actually be a gift."--Provided by publisher.
