WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE HOLIDAY?  (make sure to include where you live)

On the school counseling blog parents can find helpful  resource information via links while checking on dates for middle school information, the latest classroom topics covered and ways  to report concerns relating to bullying issues here at Echo Lake.
A person is bullied when he or she is exposed, repeatedly and over time, to negative actions on the part of one or more other persons, and he or she has difficulty defending himself or herself.
At Echo Lake we strive to strengthen and build a safe learning community which fosters positive relationships through class meeting, and implementation of bullying prevention strategies to educate all students staff and community.
Echo Lake’s system for reporting bullying incidents is as follows;
•    Reporting by teacher to parents. A form will come home for parents to sign.
•    Reporting by  students to Mrs. Williams. “Bully Box” in the Library.
•    Parent report online. This report can be anonymous. The site is manned by Mrs. Williams.
Echo Lake’s response will be on  a case by case basis. We will follow Henrico County Schools guidelines found in the code of conduct for bullying.
You can access the School Counselor blog from a link on the Echo Lake home page or directly using this address:

Have a great fall,

As we start our new word study program, there may be some questions you have about how the program works. Please feel free to ask questions or leave a comment.

A FEW HELPFUL TIPS:

1. A feature is the pattern of words that we are looking at. It is usually in BOLD at the top of the word study list each week. At times, they will be in italics or have additional helpful words in bold.

2. An oddball is a word that looks similar but does not fit.

3. You may need some help sorting. Please refer to the top of the word list for the SORT number. Visit this site for help with sorting. You can pick the list from the top and then the sort number.
