When you visit Cleveland Elementary School, you will often see students helping out around the school. Students are often volunteering their time at recess and lunch. They help with sports equipment, lunch monitoring, unlocking school doors, tutoring other students, setting up volleyball nets, taking photos for the grade 7 year book, working as Playground Pals, making the daily announcements over the public address system, setting up and maintaining the two salmon tanks, checking in or out library books, etc. The list is long. I may have mentioned this before.

Now, thanks to a few of our grade 7 students, we have Student Helper ID’s. Some of our grade 7 students spent their break time in my office designing, printing and organizing these badges for all teachers. Thanks grade 7s.

These ID’s are used by students throughout the school when they are helping us out. Students seemed quite pleased to wear these badges. It makes them feel official.

If you see a student wearing a Student Helper badge, can you please say Thank You to them? It would mean a lot.

Take care
