Joaquin Moraga Intermediate School has chosen to "celebrate differences" as their iKind theme for next year. Wouldn't it be great for the whole community to support the Middle School in this effort?
Join us in helping them, let's all work to make the Moraga community a model of kindness and inclusiveness.
Welcoming Schools is making their short film What Do You Know? 6 to 12-Year-Olds Talk About Gays and Lesbians available on You-Tube. This documentary is 13 minutes long and might be a great way to start a conversation about respect and bullying prevention with your family.
Additional resources for teachers and families are available here:

The Moraga iKind Project:
Vision:
The vision of the Moraga iKind Project is to promote civility and compassion in our community.
Mission: Our mission is to promote kindness and courtesy, to foster courage and bravery, based on the belief that empathy and inclusion constitute the foundation on which community is built. Goals: Model civility, courage, and acceptance. Identify and promote community-wide programs to support our mission. Establish a communication network of community leaders, members, and experts to share ideas and coordinate efforts to support our mission. Moraga iKind Presentations: The Morage iKind Project has a short presentation that we would like to present to your group or organization, followed by a discussion session and a chance to add your voice to ours. We can provide a meeting place or we can come to you. Please contact Wendell Baker to schedule a time. Individuals are also encouraged to contact us and we will organize small working groups. Two or more people make a group so don't be shy. Please contact Wendell Baker to schedule a time or if you would like to be involved or learn more about our efforts.
