September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month, and it’s okay to say su***de.

You don’t have to be a mental health professional to make a difference. Bringing up su***de won’t put the idea into someone’s head. But recognizing the warning signs and having honest conversations creates a safe space for people to come out and get help. Knowing how to start the conversation can make all the difference.

Find resources and tools to normalize conversations about su***de with friends, family, and trusted adults. Share these on your social channels and let your friends, family, and followers know “It’s OK to Say Su***de.”

Hi friends, family, and community!

Boomer and Sloane are doing their annual Holbrook Elementary fundraiser, and they each have their own fundraising goal they’re working toward. The money raised helps support things like field trips and transportation, classroom software, supplies, and other things teachers and classrooms need throughout the year.

We’re trying to give the kids a little more ownership this year. They’ve been having so much fun sharing flyers, watching their totals go up, celebrating each donation, and writing thank-you cards to the people who support them. Most importantly, it's a teachable moment for them to learn about setting a goal, asking for help, and showing appreciation when someone chooses to support them.

If you’d like to support them, any amount helps and truly means so much to them. You can donate through their fundraising page here:

https://app.pop4kids.org/Cause/25860503/K1M1067?share=gs

Their fundraiser ends tomorrow, Tuesday, September 15, and they’re each hoping to raise $400.

And a huge thank you to everyone who has already donated, shared their fundraiser, or cheered them on. They are really excited about it, and we appreciate you helping make this such a positive experience for them.

Love,
Kali, Boomer & Sloane 💙

This week, our community experienced an unimaginable loss with the passing of a beloved teacher whose greatest dream was becoming a mother. There are no words big enough for the heartbreak being felt by Chong’s family, friends, colleagues, students, and all those whose lives she touched so deeply. You could see the love she carried for children in the way she taught, cared, encouraged, and showed up for others each day. Her loss has left many of us shattered, grieving not only the loss of an incredible educator, but the loss of a future she was so excited to step into. Holding space for our school community during this incredibly difficult time. 🩷💕
