A percentage of any purchase made during the entire day (9am – 11pm) benefits Noxon Road School, so please make sure you bring your voucher with you.

UPDATE:
Although the weather for today and Friday will be treacherous, Saturday’s weather will be sunny, but very brisk. The Book Fair will take place (rain, snow or shine). The children that are performing are requested to wear green and gold or any other Noxon spirit wear, if possible. Although the specific schedule has been sent home, more will be available when you enter the store.

Please be advised that your children are not allowed to roam the store without adult supervision.

Our teachers have put a lot of effort into the events and although many parents have already pledged to help out during the performances, please support our teachers and offer your help where ever you can.

Please remember to bring your voucher to the store with you. This is the only way that the school will get credit for your purchases.

Topic:

Helping the child with Learning Disabilities find Social Success

We will be watching and discussing a video from Rick Lavoie.

“It’s So Much Work to Be Your Friend”

“Drawing on three decades of experience in residential schools, Rick Lavoie provides powerful strategies for teaching friendship skills in the classroom, the home front, and the community. First, you’ll explore the causes and consequences of “social incompetence.” Then, you’ll gain field-tested advice on how to help children work through daily social struggles and go from being picked on and isolated to becoming accepted and involved. 2005″
