Dear Timber Trail Elementary School Families, Welcome back! We hope you all enjoyed a wonderful break with your family and loved ones! As we work towards promoting student wellness in all areas, we want to ensure that every student in Douglas County gains understanding of the difference of bullying and harassment behavior versus normal conflict. In recognizing a bullying situation, students need to be able to effectively identify and communicate their feelings. Based on students’ developmental levels, we will explore this topic with our students:
We encourage you to support our efforts by discussing this month’s topic of Awareness Around Bullying and Harassment. Check us out next month when we discuss: Protective Factors Around Suicide on several appropriate developmental levels for elementary through high school. Your child’s safety is of the utmost importance, and we at Timber Trail Elementary will do all we can to support every student’s well-being. There are many resources available to you at your student’s school (counselor, mental health provider, teacher) and in the community. If your child has expressed thoughts of harming himself/herself and you need immediate assistance, please dial 911 or bring your child to the nearest emergency room. Please consider the resources offered on the PREVENTION and SCHOOL CULTURE (https://www.dcsdk12.org/prevention-and-school-culture) website if you want to learn more about this topic. In Partnership,
Michele Radke, Principal Nicole M. Goering, Ed.S., NCSP- Licensed School Psychologist

PARENT SUPPORT GROUP-BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PARENTS January 23, 6:00-8:00 pm at The Lone Tree Hub It Takes a Village! We say “it takes a village” when kiddos are young but as they get older and the choices they make are dangerous, embarrassing, illegal or make us look or feel like bad parents, we hide in shame. It takes a village now more than ever! Let’s get our village organized and working together to help our kids and to support each other. This parenting group is a way for parents to come together to discuss what is going on in your home, meet other parents, share resources and help each other. If you could use parenting support, want to know what to look out for as your children get older, have a story to share or just want to listen, please join us. Sponsored by J. Alexander Counseling and Bloom Counseling.
