Waresboro Families: We are excited to announce our schoolwide reading event to coincide with Read Across America Week. Starting Monday, March 2nd, we will be reading J.D and the Great Barber Battle, and next week we will have student dress-up days tied to the book. A flyer went home today (Feb. 25th), so check those backpacks for details. You can also access the flyer electronically by clicking on this link: https://bit.ly/BoroBookEvent


Encourage kids to speak up if something feels unsafe. Trusting their instincts and reporting concerns helps adults act quickly.
Remind children to slow down in hallways and common areas — safety starts with steady, aware movement.
Attendance builds habits. Each day present supports learning and belonging.
End the week with connection. A family game, shared meal, or short walk can reset moods and strengthen relationships.

School safety drills are important. Remind children that preparation builds confidence and keeps everyone safer.
Review alert settings on your phone. Make sure notifications are enabled so you don’t miss important updates.
Stress can show up as headaches, stomachaches, or frustration. A calm conversation can help kids name feelings and feel supported.
Winter routines can feel long this time of year. A consistent morning and after-school schedule helps students feel secure, focused, and ready to learn — even when the weather changes plans.
When school schedules change due to weather, routines at home still help. Keep wake-up times, meals, and reading consistent when possible.
Celebrate kindness in action. Notice when your child includes others, shows empathy, or helps without being asked — those moments matter.
Weather awareness is a skill. Teach children the difference between watches and warnings and what each one means for safety.
Practice gratitude midweek. Asking “What are you thankful for today?” can help kids reset when stress runs high.
Cold or rainy days don’t mean kids have to stop moving. Short indoor activity breaks help burn energy and improve concentration.

Review emergency contact information together. Make sure children know trusted adults’ names and phone numbers in case plans change.
A good night’s sleep supports strong emotions and better focus. Try keeping bedtime consistent even as schedules shift during winter.
Help your child understand what’s okay to share, like a drawing, and what should stay private, like their name or school. Learn more on Parent ProTech: https://app.parentprotech.com/1057/ware-county/en/signup?source=admin
