Teachers will help deliver the training and engage your students in a brief video to reinforce and grow the “Say Something” message. There are three prominent themes addressed in this: Say Something training module: 1. The identification of warning signs. 2. The identification of Trusted Adults in the school community. 3. The celebratory message of being an upstander in the school community. When students return from the break, Map testing will begin. It is imperative that your student be present on the day the test is given. Please make sure your student is well-rested and has a charged device. Map Test Schedule:
