Jan 2010 NO NAME CALLING WEEK 2010 - THE PEACE FLAG PROJECT
No Naming Calling Week, coordinated by Guidance Counselor, Gloria Eno, was a big success. The purpose of the week was for students to be more sensitive to name calling and bullying and to give students the opportunity to reflect on their own behavior. The program was a natural extension and reinforcement of the character education program at Nottingham West.
