4. Parkview School is part of a new MPS Health Initiative this year. I asked the new Social Worker and Psychologist to work on the Trails Program with K-3 children and teachers, the Zink the Zebra Program with K3,K4,K5. We do have the Steps to Respect Program with Trade Books in the Basement which is about bullying, for 3,4,5 to use. I suggested staff Morale and Unity Boosters and the FISH Program.
