October Parent Connection Newsletter:

October brings a focus on kindness and safety. This month, we’re sharing resources to prevent bullying and build a supportive, connected school community for every child.

Bullying can lead to anxiety and school avoidance, leaving children feeling unsafe and overwhelmed. This issue offers strategies to identify warning signs and help children feel supported.

You can read and share the newsletter online in multiple languages or download the PDF in English https://5il.co/3pttt or Spanish https://5il.co/3pttu

This month’s Parent Guidance Mental Health Newsletter focuses on suicide prevention, a topic that can be difficult but is so important for families and schools to address together. The newsletter offers practical tips, conversation starters, and resources to help parents recognize warning signs and support their children. I encourage you to take a few minutes to read it—you may find it helpful not only for your own family, but also in knowing how to support others in our community.
