Dear KPR community, 

November is a rich month for learning opportunities in KPR schools, in support of our shared values of student achievement, well-being and success for all.Ìý 

Indigenous Peoples Awareness Month continues as an intentional time to reflect on our role in reconciliation, and to augment the important learning about Indigenous histories, cultures and perspectives that happens throughout the entire school year.Ìý

We recognized Bullying Awareness and Prevention Week November 17–21, as a time for all of us to learn, reflect, and take action to make our schools safe, kind, and welcoming for everyone.ÌýWhen bullying goes unaddressed, it impacts the whole school climate.ÌýI want to recognize and express appreciation for the critical work of educators and school staff in responding to issues in a timely, culturally sensitive, trauma-informed, and supportive way.Ìý

Information about upcoming days of significance, such as International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women on November 25, is available on the , and on our social media accounts @kprschools on Facebook and Instagram.Ìý

Take care,
