Anti-Bully Slogans for October

Be kind…everyone matters.

Attitude of Gratitude quote for MAD Week: “Gratitude can transform common
days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy and change ordinary
opportunities into blessings.” Have you ever considered keeping a
Gratitude Journal? Research studies have shown that keeping a 5 minute a
day gratitude journal will increase your long term well being more than
winning a million dollars in the lottery.

Would you like to save hundreds of dollars for your family every year and
avert thousands of pieces of trash? The results of a study by ECO lunchbox
show that a typical family wastes about $450 on throwaways – and creates
thousands of pieces of garbage at lunchtime unnecessarily every year. “We
know green lunches are healthy for people and the planet, but the results
of our study strongly show that our pocketbooks are big winners, too,” says
Sandra Harris, president and founder of ECOlunchbox. “No matter how you
look at it, going waste-free at lunchtime is a big winner.”

This week is the last week of National Bully Prevention Month! This week we
are also celebrating our Make A Difference Week by having an Attitude of
Gratitude!

You can all make a difference! Always be kind and make everyone feel
welcome! It’s never okay to criticize or be mean to someone because he or
she is different from you. We feel good about ourselves when other people
care about our feelings and are kind to us. So make a difference by being
kind to everyone, even if they are different!

Thank you to all of those who supported our Bully Free cause by wearing
black today and throughout the month of October! Remember to follow this
month’s bullying tips and to treat your classmates well! Always be kind and
make others feel welcome! This helps make our school a safer and friendlier
place to be. Remember that everyone can do something to stop bullying and
Make a Difference!

BLAST FROM THE PAST!!

They will be sold for the bargain price of only $5 each.

Hello Sheboygan Falls Middle Schoolers! This Friday, October 28th, the

Attention SFMS Staff and Students – Did you know that in Wisconsin alone
more than 200,000 people are diagnosed with breast cancer each year? Let’s
show our support and wear pink on Monday, October 31st as Breast Cancer
Awareness month comes to a close. Wouldn’t it be neat to have the entire
school filled with pink to show our support?

This year the SDSF, in conjunction with Make a Difference Week, is striving
to create less trash during lunch. A typical American school kid
generates 67 pounds of discarded lunchbox packaging waste per school year.
That’s more than 18,000 pounds annually for an average-size elementary
school, which adds up nationwide to more than 1 billion pounds annually. A
typical U.S. family using disposables generates more than 4,000 pieces of
lunch trash unnecessarily each year, according to our ECO lunchboxes
Lunchbox Waste Study 2010. The 1st WASTE FREE LUNCH is Oct. 26th.
Domino’s pizza, Steamed Broccoli Florets, Ranch Salad, Fresh Blueberries,
Fresh Apple. There will not be extra containers to put ketchup and dip in.
Just place the condiments on your tray with the food you’re using it on.
On the back are a few ideas to help you pack your own waste-free lunch.

*Attention 7th and 8th grade students! We will be holding
the Falcon Store on Wednesday, October 26th in the cafeteria. This is an
opportunity for all students to spend their falcon feathers earned by
“staying above the line” on awesome prizes like snacks, school supplies,
and more!*

*For one falcon feather you can purchase items like pens or pencils. For
two, you can purchase fruit roll-ups, suckers, or Sharpies. Three feathers
can get you chips. With four feathers, you can buy cool notebooks or
snacks. Those who have earned five feathers can buy Gatorade!*

*Rules will be posted about making purchases.*

*Be sure to save those hard earned falcon feathers so you can experience
the falcon store…brought to you by the falcon way! Go falcons!*

If any students or staff have family or friends who are veterans, and you
would like an invitation to our program sent to them, please get their
names and addresses to Alice Samse by Friday, Oct. 28.

Sheboygan Falls Middle School will again be participating in *Operation
Gratitude’s Candy Give Back Program.* We’re not kidding! *WE WANT YOUR
CANDY!* Candy will be *shipped overseas to our courageous troops *(who
could sure use a treat or two!) serving our country in the Middle East. In
return, you will be doing good things for others! It’s all about MAKING A
DIFFERENCE!

*Candy can be dropped off November 1st-4th in-front of the main office!
Thank you for your donation!*

Anti-Bully Slogans for October

Be strong enough to stand alone, smart enough to know when you need help,
and brave enough to ask for it.

Attitude of Gratitude quote for MAD Week: “We tend to forget that happiness
doesn’t come as a result of getting something we don’t have, but rather of
recognizing and appreciating what we do have.” There are so many people
who do so much for kids at school. Showing gratitude to our staff in
meaningful ways can make a difference. Give a genuine verbal compliment or
note of thanks to a staff member this week.

The best way to reduce garbage is to not create it. A waste-free lunch
(sometimes called a litter-less, smart, garbage-less, waste-free,
no-garbage or waste-not lunch) means that you have no packaging to throw
away when you’re done. All you’re left with is apple cores, banana peels
and other biodegradable extras. Don’t forget…tomorrow is our first Waste
Free Lunch!

Students and Staff – Please know that the “water bottle flipping” that
began as a fun thing to do has grown legs and is out of control! Students
are now flipping everything they can find which has caused a few safety
concerns and an overall distraction. Therefore, the concept of “flipping”
anything is now considered an “unexpected” behavior.

What do you do if you are being bullied?

A good first step is to tell the person to stop, using a calm body and
voice. Before you say anything, you will need to decide if it’s safe
because sometimes it is not a good idea to confront the bully on your own.
The following are examples of when it would NOT be a good idea to confront
a bully on your own.

The person bullying you is older or bigger than you are.

More than one person is ganging up on on.

You have no friends who can help you.

No adult is nearby.

You feel trapped.

If you decide it is safe to confront the bully, you can refuse to be
bullied by taking these steps:

Look straight at the bully with your head held high.

Speak respectfully and use a calm, clear voice.

Say, “That’s bullying and you need to stop.”

Walk away calmly.

To refuse bullying safely, it’s important that you don’t get so mad that
you end up losing your temper and getting into a fight. As you refuse
bullying, be sure that you:

Remind yourself to stay cool and calm by taking a deep breath. Imagine
yourself speaking in a strong, clear respectful voice.

Keep in mind that bullies are less likely to target people who are in a
group or those who walk tall with their heads held high. Even if you don’t
always feel self-confident, faking it is okay!

Don’t forget to wear black next Wednesday to support being a Bully Free
School!
