Congratulations goes out to a few of our grade 6 @Mapleton_LSSD students who won 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in the writing contest for the Selkirk Record! Check out their stories to get in the holiday spirit!

Correction: two other Mapleton students also were in the paper with their stories!
Student vote day today was a lot of fun. Kids did research on this site to make an educated decision. pollenize.org/en/elections/c…

Studies find that "higher social class predicts increased unethical behaviour". As we gain more income we become more insolated from other people and forget about the humanity. The lost prizes speaker Marc Kuly from Selkirk tells the power of the story.

Promoting mental health promotion at lost prizes shows a valuable alternative to suspension. Students use their 5 day suspension to attend pd or career development training. Keep kids in the school!

Before I found teaching I started my own wedding planning company. I still take a couple clients a year. Two different careers that require very similar skillsets. Congratulations M and M!

The Band-Aids came in! So excited to offer students a Band-Aid to match their skin tone.

With Eid coming up, we are looking for new clothes that celebrate the occasion. Students have been teaching me all about Ramadan this year.

It's taken me 45 trips around the sun, but for the first time in my life I know what it feels like to have a "band-aid" in my own skin tone. You can barely even spot it in the first image. For real I'm holding back tears.

Five paragraph essays are well underway. The goal is not to write an essay, but rather to build writing stamina and have them see themselves as a writer. The writing process from start to finish.
