BCS Character Ed Word of the Week: Kindness
Think about how important it is to be kind in our actions and words. Can you think of times when showing kindness has made you feel better (as well as the person you were kind to)? Are you able to be kind so that everyone feels included and treated fairly? How does it feel to be with people who are kind? What steps have you taken to act with kindness?
Lets RAK em’ UP! (RAK - stands for Random Acts of Kindness) We will be keeping track of these acts by the passing on of our class RAK bracelet.

FOOD ALLERGY AWARENESS
Food allergy is a growing public health issue that impacts almost every school across the United States. Nearly 6 million children in the U.S. – which equates to 1 in 13, or roughly 2 in every classroom – have a food allergy. Studies indicate that 16-18% of school-age children who have food allergies have had a reaction in school. In addition, in approximately 25% of the reactions that occur at school, the student had not yet been diagnosed with food allergy.
