We are excited to introduce our counselors, Samantha Winder and Jennifer Herrback, who are looking forward to partnering with you to support your students throughout the year. As we begin, we’d like to share a few helpful resources:
New Student Lunch Bunch – To help new students in grades 1–5 feel connected and supported, we will be hosting fun, informal lunch gatherings. These “lunch bunches” are a great way for students to connect with their peers, ask questions, and feel warmly welcomed into our Firebird Family!
Backpack Program – If your family would benefit from food assistance over weekends, please fill out this quick form. The program will begin in the coming weeks.
We are looking forward to a wonderful year supporting our Firebirds!
Olweus Bullying Prevention Program
This year, Windsor Charter Academy is implementing the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program across all grade levels, kindergarten through 12th grade. Over the next few weeks, our elementary school counselors will be meeting with students to learn more about their feelings regarding school, friendships, and themselves. As part of this process, students will complete the slip below and bring it home for your review. We encourage you to take a few minutes to talk with your child about the goal they’ve identified and the steps they can take to achieve it. Your support at home plays an important role in helping them succeed!
If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out. We are here to help!
