Welcome back to the start of the 22-23 school year!

We are thrilled to have you with us as a teacher, parent, or student.

Starting the Year Right

We are all learning many new names at this time of year. Take the time to learn our to pronounce people’s names correctly. Begin by asking them to say their name, listen carefully and repeat it until you know it. Teachers, model the correct pronunciation until all students can say the name correctly.

Below is a great series of infographics to share with others about some dos and do nots of pronouncing names.

For teachers, here are some activities around names that you may find useful.
