September is National Service Dog Month! This year we will have a student with a trained and certified service dog joining our Black Knight Family. The service dog will be wearing a vest and will be leashed at all times. When he is wearing his vest, he is working. Please do not pet or give attention to a working service dog as it may distract them from their important task.
Learn more about how service dogs are trained, what makes them different from a pet, and what types of tasks they can perform to assist their handlers by clicking here: https://canine.org/service-dogs/service-dog-month/

As we head back to school, we’d like to remind families it’s important to make sure you’re not giving away too much personal information on your social media.
Personal details such as what classroom your kids are going to be in, their grade level, age, school, location, and the name of their teacher, are all particulars you may want to omit so predators and scammers can’t access that information.
You may also want to consider checking your privacy settings and be sure your posts and photos can only be viewed by people you know in real life and trust.
