talking to kids about today's issues
​

  There are things happening in this country that many of us do not understand.  If we don't understand it, how can we expect our children to?  Here are some resources that you may find helpful.

  We will be preparing bagged meals (breakfast and lunch) out of our production kitchens at the Alburgh, Grand Isle, and Folsom Schools, where our professional staff will prepare meals in a safe and sanitary environment. To exercise the recommended social distancing, we will provide meals to children 18 and under for free through delivery using a combination of our bus drivers and support staff to deliver the meals to homes. If you would like meals for your student delivered please contact the following:

   The links that are listed below are included to help your kids discover new places, see parts of the world they might never see in person, read books, learn to cook, and so much more.  The links will be updated on a weekly basis so that there is something new to see every time you come on here.  Please be aware of any copyright licensing if you are printing and sharing.  I tried to find websites that are free for public use but some may have slipped through.
   I want to give a big shout out to Ty from Troop 325 in Lake Jackson, TX who gave me a suggestion for everyone to explore.
