K-5th Families,

During the week of September 15th through September 19th, High Springs Community School will do our part in helping students recognize warning signs of loneliness and spread awareness of acceptance and inclusion by participating in Start With Hello Week.

Last year, over 12,000 schools from across the United States participated in Start With Hello Call To Action week to highlight and spread the message of the power of Start With Hello’s three simple steps:

1. See Someone Alone

2. Reach Out and Help

3. Start With Hello

We encourage you to talk to your child about the Start With Hello program and ask them to share what tthey have learned. For more information about Sandy Hook Promise programs, please visit: https://www.sandyhookpromise.org/.

Thank you for supporting the Start With Hello Week!
