💙 Building Community Through Capturing Kids’ Hearts 💙
At our school, we believe in creating a safe, respectful, and welcoming environment for every student. One way we do this is through Capturing Kids’ Hearts Social Contracts. A social contract is a shared agreement created by students that describes how we want to treat one another and how we want to feel at school. It helps guide positive behavior, strong relationships, and a sense of belonging in every classroom.
Over the past several weeks, our student ambassadors met regularly to carefully review and analyze each classroom’s social contract. Through thoughtful discussion and collaboration, they combined these ideas into one unified, school-wide social contract that represents the voices and values of our entire school community.
Last Friday, we proudly unveiled our new school-wide social contract during a student-led assembly, led by our ambassadors. Their leadership, teamwork, and commitment to creating a positive school culture truly shined!
We are so proud of our ambassadors and all of our students for helping make our school a place where everyone feels safe, valued, and respected. 💙✨
