What are Kindness Rocks?
Kindness rocks are rocks that make someone's day brighter. They have kind and inspiring words or just a picture on them. Students in grades K-5 each had the opportunity to decorate a rock with words, colors, and drawings for the student leadership project. Great way to include everyone in a project focused on spreading kindness! #bekind

Thanks to your support and generosity this year, we were able to fund a BRAND NEW SENSORY ROOM at Churchill!!!! 👏
“We are very excited to have our new sensory room up and running! Our sensory room provides a space that is devoted to 'developing the senses.' Each piece of equipment serves a specific purpose. The equipment may be used to help students reduce stress, reduce aggression, increase focus, motivate learning, increase interaction, and assist with sensory integration. This is a space that can be used by ALL students, despite their abilities. We share this space with our physical and occupational therapists, who are available to help provide guidance, and assist our students with their sensory needs.” - Nina Mulder Occupational Therapist
