Afternoon Car Pool Reminders
Our focus needs to be on student safety and efficiently moving students to cars so remember...
A. Parents need to wait away from the doors, beyond the school canopy on the Old Bonhomme Road side of the sidewalk, for their child to exit the building. We have installed a yellow safety chain as a reminder.
B. After meeting your child, move back beyond the yellow chain so the supervisors can clearly identify students still waiting to be picked up.
C. The playground is chained off from community use until all students are dismissed.

Real Talk about Bullying:
How to Help Your Child if he/she is a
Target/a Bully/or a Bystander
MICDS and Whitfield School have teamed
together to bring award winning-speaker Jim
Bisenius for an exciting and informational
program titled Real Talk about Bullying: How
to Help Your Child if He/She is a Target, a
Bully, or a Bystander. In this program,
parents will learn how to teach their child to
respond to verbal bullying, physical bullying,
social bullying, and group manipulations.
Parents will walk away with knowledge of the
various roles of bullying as well as tools they
can immediately implement and help their
child master in order to eliminate bullying
from his or her life. Participants will learn
specifically how “popular” bullies isolate,
control and manipulate their peers. They will
learn exactly what steps their son or
daughter must take to stop them. In addition,
parents will be able to use all of these
techniques in their own life to deal with
controlling or intimidating adults. Please join
us on April 23, 2014 from 6:30-8:30 on the
campus of MICDS. Program will be held in the
Mary Eliot Chapel and is open to all parents
(JK-12).
Don’t forget!
