Daily Announcements

Thursday, February 15th, 2024

Important Information:

  • National Gumdrop Day

 

  • Today is Susan B. Anthony Day. This day celebrates a remarkable woman who fought for women's right to vote. Born on February 15th, 1820, Susan B. Anthony played a crucial role in the women's suffrage movement, leading to the 19th Amendment in 1920 that granted women the right to vote. On this day, we honor her contributions and commitment to equality, inspiring us to continue working towards a fair and just world for everyone.

 

 

  • Hey everyone, we want to take a minute to talk about something super important. Everyone struggles, even if it doesn’t seem like it. It’s OK to not be OK. Here at Kinard and in PSD, we care about ourselves and each other. We all belong here, and you are never alone. If it just feels like too much and you don’t know what to do, remember:
    • If you need support in school now, connect with a trusted adult or a counselor. Counselors will connect you to help.
    • If someone you know needs help, ask how they’re doing, listen to them, and connect them to a trusted adult or a counselor. If you’re not in school, talk to a family member or call or text 988.
    • As we mentioned, we have incredible counselors, Ms. Irvine and Mrs. Young to talk to, and we have a student wellness room that students can access.
    • Again, it’s OK not to be OK. There are resources and people available to help. You are never alone, there is always hope.
