We’re Weather-Ready! Students will practice tornado and storm safety drills this month. Remind your child to follow directions, stay quiet, and know their safe space inside the school.
Start a gratitude jar. Each family member adds one thankful note a day until Thanksgiving.
Celebrate the small stuff: Tell your child one thing they did this month that made you proud. End October on a high note.
Reminder: Lunchboxes do not self-clean. Check your child’s bag tonight. You might discover a science experiment growing in there.
Review trick-or-treat safety together: crosswalks only, group travel, check candy before eating.
Georgia weather often means cold mornings with warm afternoons. Send kids with a jacket they can stash in their bag.
End of month check: Look through your child’s phone for any new hidden apps (calculator vaults, disguised folders).
School stress builds this time of year. Ask your child: “Is anything weighing on you right now?” and just listen.
Parents, if you’re sneaking candy from the Halloween stash, at least be strategic. Rotate the bag so no one notices. Oop!
The week of Halloween is busy—stick to bedtime routines so kids don’t turn into goblins before Thursday night.
End the week strong: Set a family goal to unplug for 30 minutes tonight. Play cards, walk, or just talk.
One rude message can turn into a big deal fast. Help your child handle digital drama at Parent ProTech: https://app.parentprotech.com/1057/ware-county/en/signup?source=admin
Waresboro Families: Family Night is coming up! Tickets will be sold at school through next Wednesday(no tickets will be sold at the gate). I Return the flyer slip with money. Tickets sold this week go home Mon., Oct. 27!
Encourage your child to write a quick thank-you note (or picture) for a teacher or staff member. Gratitude is powerful.
October = flu season. Remind kids to wash hands before meals and after recess, not just “when they look dirty.”
Halloween scams hit online, too. Warn kids about fake costume sites and “free candy” links.
Ask your child: “Who made you smile today?” It’s a simple way to teach gratitude.
Please be reminded that we are conducting AED drills this month. We are practicing lifesaving skills in an effort to stay ready!
Coming back from break can feel like a restart. Lay out clothes and prep lunches the night before to cut morning stress.
