Dear
Parents/ Guardian,
Your
child will be participating in classroom guidance lessons provided by a
Catapult Learning school counselor. The goal of classroom guidance is to
deliver information to large groups of students, that will help them learn
about themselves, interact in a positive manner with peers, and develop skills
to succeed in their academic environment.
Topics can include
areas such as mindfulness, responsibility,
self-control, coping skills, and resolving conflicts.
If you do
not wish for your child to participate in these lessons, please sign below and
return to school by Thursday February 4,
2021.
I DO NOT
wish for my child to participate in the classroom guidance lessons.
