  • All Are Welcome Week

    We are so excited to kick off the 2024/25 school year celebrating inclusivity and equity for all with our annual “All Are Welcome Week”! 

    Beginning September 16th to the 20th, we will be encouraging students to celebrate their emotions, similarities, differences, and uniqueness by engaging in various activities each day to build community. To help do this, we will be reading the book Big Feelings.  

    Students will also be challenged to create an “All About Me” poster that they will share with their classmates about what makes them unique and how their emotions are important in shaping their sense of self. 

    As we have done in past years, we will also be celebrating differences and uniqueness with our daily Spirit Week activities! 

    Please join in the fun because....ALL ARE WELCOME AT PS196Q: The School With A Heart
