This month, our Rose Tigers are learning about Compassionate Communication- expressing ourselves with kindness, empathy,1 and understanding. We’re focusing on how our words and actions can build bridges, lift others up, and create a school where everyone feels valued and heard.

To support this learning, we are studying John Lewis, a courageous civil rights leader who believed deeply in the power of peaceful words and actions to create lasting change. He taught us that we can disagree without disrespect and that our voices matter when we use them with love, courage, and care.

“Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble.” — John Lewis

✨ We can use our voices to help, to heal, and to make our school a kinder place.

Family Conversation Starters:

Students who model Compassionate Communication will be celebrated at our ROAR Rally on Friday, December 19. Families of honorees will receive invitations soon.

“These Rose Tigers are on the TNT Dance Team at Jensen's Performing Arts, and they had a performance on Friday at the Milpitas Tree Lighting Ceremony! Indi performed a tap dance to ‘Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree’, and Elise and Kylaine performed a special dance to ‘Santa Claus Is Coming to Town’ and got to be on stage to lead the countdown to light the Milpitas trees for the holiday season!”

🎉 What an incredible accomplishment! We are so proud of Indi, Elise, and Kylaine for shining on stage, representing Rose with confidence, talent, and Tiger pride. Way to go, Tigers! 🐯✨
