Orchard Families,
Responsibility is 1 of 3 traits we will focus on through out the year that helps students Be Strong. As a family, think of ways in which you might make someone’s life a little easier by helping a neighbor or family friend with1 of their Responsibilities. Could you bring the garbage to the chute or out to the curb? Could you carry things in from the grocery store? Could you invite someone over for a meal or a show?
We want to ensure that our drop-off lane is safe. Please watch the short video below about best practices for dropping off and picking up your child at Orchard.
