We will be sharing updates for the year, talking about the FUN RUN, hearing from Second Grade, and voting on the budget! (Since we are voting, it is super important we have enough members there, virtual or in-person, for quorum).
Come out to the SCES Media Center at 6:30pm on Tues, Sept 12th, or join in virtually!
If you need to sign up to become a member, you can do that at the meeting.
And if you need a link to attend virtually, please send us a message (DM) and we will get the link to you.
See you soon!

And a big "Thank You" to Ms McIntyre, the SCES Art Teacher, for snapping a pic of them!
This week, Swift Creek students were introduced to The Positivity Project (P2) and the “Other People Matter” mindset.
Over the course of each year, students learn about the 24 character strengths that everyone possesses and can begin to appreciate their own strengths. Families are encouraged to follow along by using the 3-1-1 model, which means 1 quote, 1 video and 3 questions to think and talk about. Caregivers can find the information quickly and easily using any mobile device. To learn more about the Positivity Project and all of the character strengths, here is the link https://posproject.org/character-strengths/. Next week students will learn about self-control, having the ability to control your emotions and behaviors, thinking before you act. Learn more here: https://bit.ly/45JewC6
If you have any questions about behavioral health at Swift Creek, you may contact Mrs. Chadwick, SCES School Counselor at cchadwick@wcpss.net.
Scan the QR Code, or use the link below, and you'll be able to sign up and join. Membership is $10.
If you have any questions, you can send us a message.
