Our fifth graders have participated in the r.a.d.KIDS program this week and have demonstrated great knowledge and skills in protecting themselves from harm. I've been so impressed as I've watched our students respond appropriately to various scenarios presented by the instructors. The program culminated in a demonstration presented Fri. morning in which the students practiced what to do in various confrontational dilemmas. It is so important that kids know who they are and how special they are, and that they will be courageous enough to assertively stand their ground and defend themselves when necessary. I'm proud of our Crew and hope they never have to use the skills learned this week, but know they've been well prepared thanks to this fantastic program.
Yo Mr. Crippen!!! Nice entry. Gotta go. Homework to do!
