Welcome to 1st Grade
Welcome to the St. Augustin Catholic School 1st-grade news page. Please check out the "About Mrs. Alessio" page to get to know me better. I am looking forward to a blessed year:)
#thekindnessrevolution
The "Kindness Revolution" has started in 1st grade! When I catch a student or teacher/staff member being kind, I give them a kindness bracelet. That person is to catch someone else being kind and pass the bracelet on. The goal is to share kindness and hopefully, the St. Augustin School Community will start brightening up someone's day by finding and showing kindness. Check your child's wrist and ask them if they got "caught!" #choosekind #beingkindischool
