Sub for Santa

Submitted by leann.wood on Wed, 10/28/2020 - 12:33

For over 35 years, United Way of Utah County's Sub for Santa has coordinated with local schools and nonprofits to provide gifts for children in Utah County. These gifts include books, educational toys, and winter clothes. This is a temporary Christmas assistance program that assists families that are not getting help from anyone else. 

Sub for Santa goes beyond Christmas. They also help families with taxes, parenting support, and link them to other needed resources.

Did you know that when you shop for the holidays at  smile.amazon.com/ch/87-0546418(link is external), AmazonSmile donates to Nebo Education Foundation? Nebo Education Foundation has received $3,875 through this program.

One hundred percent of these monies fund teacher grants to help supplement equipment and supplies for students. 

Thank you for supporting the Nebo Education Foundation by shopping at smile.amazon.com instead of just Amazon.

Superhero Day

Submitted by leann.wood on Wed, 10/21/2020 - 14:04

We had lots of Superheros at school today! Students had the choice to dress up today like their favorite Superhero as part of our Red Ribbon Week activities. We are learning about being brave like our favorite superheros and practicing kindness and no bullying.

What does it mean to be brave? There are several different ways to be brave, but being brave is not only having courage or not being scared but it is also about doing something that is hard. We all face hard things in our life and we can do hard things!

Be Happy, Be Brave, Be Drug Free Week

 

For Red Ribbon Week, we will be focusing on how we can be happy and brave for life!  

 

Research shows that strengthening kids in four areas is the best way to prevent them from engaging in risky behaviors, such as drug/alcohol use:  

  • Family Bonding
  • Community Connection
  • Healthy Relationships
  • Personal Development & Resiliency
