S.O.S - Youth Suicide Prevention Program for Middle School Students

9/19/2019

0 Comments

This year, we are grateful to have the S.O.S - Signs of Suicide Youth Suicide Prevention Program for Middle School students coming to St. Patrick School. The goals of SOS are:

To provide an educational opportunity for students, parents, and faculty to gain a deeper understanding of depression and suicide and to be able to communicate with each other using a common language.
To help understand that depression is a treatable illness.
To explain that suicide is a preventable tragedy that often occurs as a result of untreated depression.
To provide students, parents, and faculty training in how to identify serious depression and potential suicide risk.
To impress upon students that they can help themselves by taking the step of talking to a trusted adult about their concerns.
To partner together in understanding, identifying, and helping those dealing with depression and to provide resources to assist families with this very serious issue

On Wednesday, November 13 at 5:30pm, St. Patrick School will host a parent information night where you will learn more about this program. Parents will have a chance to understand how the program works, gain access to a parent portal where you can find a lot of great information, and ask any questions you may have.All parents of middle school students are encouraged to attend. After the parent information night, you will have the chance to opt your child out of this program or to allow your child to participate in this program fully. Please make plans to attend!

FIRE "Celebrate Inclusion" Week is Coming! - Oct. 7-9

9/19/2019

0 Comments

During the week of October 7-9, we will be completing different activities to show our support to the FIRE Foundation. One of these activities is a "Be Kind" dress down day. We are asking ALL students to donate a plain t-shirt by October 1st. This shirt can be any color, but should not have any writing or design on it.

Don't feel like you have to go out and buy something new! If your chid has a plain t-shirt hanging in his/her closet (that you don't mind donating), just send it in! If you have a bunch of extra plain t-shirts around, send those in, too! Students will be decorating their "Be Kind" t-shirt and bringing it home over the weekend so that it can be worn on Monday, October 7th for our "Be Kind Dress Down Day".

If you are unable to provide a plain t-shirt for your child, just send me an email at kmonaghan@stpatrickkc.com. If you are willing to donate extra t-shirts, please send those in by October 1st as well! Thank you for helping us with this project!
Reminder: Bring in a plain t-shirt (any color, no writing or designs) by October 1st.

Tuesday, October 1: Classroom Coin Challenge Begins - Which classroom can collect the most coins for FIRE?? The classroom with the most donations by October 9th will receive a popsicle party!

Monday, October 7: Be Kind Dress Down Day - Students will wear the t-shirts they design, along with jeans to show their support for inclusion!

Tuesday, October 8:
K-5 - "Superheroes for Inclusion" - Students are invited to wear Super Hero costumes or t-shirts on this day.
6-8 - NASA Learning Field Trip - Uniform Day

Wednesday, October 9:
Wear Red or Blue for FIRE! Wear your red/blue FIRE t-shirt or any red/blue t-shirt to show your support for FIRE! We will announce the winners of the Classroom Coin Challenge on this day. All donations will go to the FIRE Foundation.
