Safety tips for a fun and safe Halloween  

Most kids know how to be safe, but sometimes the excitement of Halloween makes us a little forgetful.

-Make sure drivers can see you and that you can see through your mask or costume in order to navigate safely.

-Let your folks know who you are with and where you are going. Your family wants you to be safe so honor your curfew. (It may be a pain, but they love you and they want you back home).

-Adults love Halloween, too, but your neighbors want you to be respectful of their homes. Put some effort into your costumes, play the part positively and please remember to thank them when they give you candy. If Snickers and Smarties grew on trees you wouldn't have to go begging door to door, would you?

-Respect the fun of younger trick-or-treaters.

-Be kind to animals, and be aware of pets who are protecting their homes.

Quote the Day:

The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention…. A loving silence often has far more power to heal and to connect than the most well-intentioned words.

This Week's theme for the 8 Conditions is 

Spirit of Adventure: Being excited to try new things, even when you are not sure if you will be good at them.

The Condition of Spirit of Adventure is characterized by students’ ability to take on positive, healthy challenges at school and home, with family and friends. Students experience the Spirit of Adventure when they tackle something new without the fear of failure or success. Teachers can encourage and support students' Spirit of Adventure by urging them to explore new things. When teachers create an atmosphere that allows for healthy decision making and risk taking, students can become more confident and resilient. Students with the Spirit of Adventure see life as full of opportunities worth exploring for their own sake.

So, what do you do that's adventurous? Extreme sports? Theater? Music? Cooking? The Outdoors?
