students participating in activities

Ledyard Middle School

We held an all-school REALTALK activity during our lunch waves. We made posters with the REALTALK question and positive messages regarding our topic, "Bullying". We had the question typed out on tickets, stating, "When was a time you said something you wish you could take back and why would you take it back?"

The students answered the question on the back of the ticket and then received a prize of a piece of candy. This started up several conversations among the students and support staff that were there. We also had a ring toss game to play after they had answered the question. We had about 350 students participate!

Gallup Hill Elementary School

Gallup Hill's A4L group has been very busy! During the months of February and March, they collected toiletry items to start a care closet at their school. So far, they have collected toothbrushes, toothpaste, and deodorant.

Additionally, they wrote a skit and performed it at our monthly whole school assembly. The skit was about teamwork and fair play!
