Working on our friendship skills!
This is what Grade 4 students will be doing this year in friendship class. Our class
is a part of the religion curriculum and meets on Fridays.
Below is a list of the topics that we will be addressing during the
year. You can find my
general communications with parents below as well.
I look forward to a great year! Please feel free to contact me (rhead@stsimon.org or, after construction, at 650-968-9952, Ext. 32) with questions, comments, or concerns.
