Georgia weather often means cold mornings with warm afternoons. Send kids with a jacket they can stash in their bag.
End of month check: Look through your child’s phone for any new hidden apps (calculator vaults, disguised folders).
School stress builds this time of year. Ask your child: “Is anything weighing on you right now?” and just listen.
Parents, if you’re sneaking candy from the Halloween stash, at least be strategic. Rotate the bag so no one notices. Oop!
The week of Halloween is busy—stick to bedtime routines so kids don’t turn into goblins before Thursday night.
End the week strong: Set a family goal to unplug for 30 minutes tonight. Play cards, walk, or just talk.
One rude message can turn into a big deal fast. Help your child handle digital drama at Parent ProTech: https://app.parentprotech.com/1057/ware-county/en/signup?source=admin
Encourage your child to write a quick thank-you note (or picture) for a teacher or staff member. Gratitude is powerful.
October = flu season. Remind kids to wash hands before meals and after recess, not just “when they look dirty.”
Halloween scams hit online, too. Warn kids about fake costume sites and “free candy” links.
Ask your child: “Who made you smile today?” It’s a simple way to teach gratitude.
Please be reminded that we are conducting AED drills this month. We are practicing lifesaving skills in an effort to stay ready!

Coming back from break can feel like a restart. Lay out clothes and prep lunches the night before to cut morning stress.
Talk about location sharing. Ask: “Who really needs to know where you are?” Spoiler: not every app.
Fall break = more screen time. Set app timers so “just one more video” doesn’t eat an afternoon.
Fall picture proofs were sent home with students today. The order deadline is Tuesday, October 21st. If your child was not photographed on our original picture day, retakes will be held on October 21st.
You can order photos online at www.bpiphotography.net
As always, we appreciate your continued support of our school. Have a wonderful fall break! 🍂

October is Fire Prevention Month. Ask your child about their school’s fire drill and evacuation plan. Talk about your plan at home, too!
Friday fun: Eat dinner together and let your child pick the conversation topic. (Yes, even if it’s about video games.)
Fall break starts soon. Set a goal with your child to finish homework or projects early so the break feels like a true break.
