Blue Ribbon Week: Kindneses Counts

KindnesSCounts
Vista del Mar Elementary School
Monday, February 6th-Tuesday, February 14, 2012

We are excited to announce KindnesSCounts, our blue ribbon program for our students and parents at Vista del Mar.
San Clemente Schools are partnering together with the City of San Clemente, Orange County Sheriff Department, Southern California Edison/San Onofre and other local businesses in a variety of programs that promote kindness, friendship, dealing with social drama, and bullying awareness. Our San Clemente PTA Family community project this year will be a can food drive through Family Assistance Ministries (FAM) to benefit San Clemente families. Administration, teachers, staff, PTA, and the City of San Clemente are proud to support these programs.  We hope to empower students to handle social situations in a positive manner.
