Make it a December to remember. Here is Miller's calendar of school activities to plan ahead.
Restorative justice practices (RJP) promote values and principles that use inclusive, collaborative approaches for being in community. These approaches validate the experiences and needs of everyone... and allow us to act and respond in ways that are healing rather than alienating.
Parents, join Mr. Spriggs and Ms. Lopez to discuss and encourage gentle reflection, responsibility, and repairing harm with your students at home.
DATE: Monday, December 11
TIME: 9AM - 10AM
