radKIDS Parent Night

What is radKIDS?

The radKIDS program is rooted in the cultivation of self-esteem and provides a comprehensive safety education and developmental life-skills curriculum to elementary school children. Curriculum topics include:  Escape Routes, Anti-Bullying, Home Safety, 911, Out & About Safety, Drugs & Alcohol, Personal Boundaries, Predator Tricks, Good/Bad/Uncomfortable Touch, and Verbal & Physical Resistance.

Our radKIDS training is open to students in kindergarten through sixth grade, ages 5-12 years old. In order to graduate and simulate from radKIDS, children MUST attend ALL five 2-hour sessions.  Click here to see the flyer that was sent home and has the detailed information about the program.

Objective of Parent Night

To provide provide parents with important information and strategies to help keep children safe from abuse and abduction. Additionally, this event gives families an understanding of the radKIDS educational model and familiarity with the radKIDS curriculum, rules, and language used in the program for the children. PTA provides radKIDS Family Safety Manuals to all participating families so that parents can reinforce the lessons and lay the foundation for ongoing communication and empowerment for every child’s personal safety.

How can I sign up my student for radKIDS?

• In order to register your child in ANY radKIDS class this school year, a parent must attend the radKIDS Parent Meeting on Tuesday 11/13/18 from 5:30-7:00 in the IRC. The Parent Meeting is for PARENTS ONLY. Childcare will NOT be provided at this meeting and the material is inappropriate for children.
• Parents, please line up in front of the office (the only entrance for this event) and be on time. Registration for classes fills up quickly!
• Please check your child’s after-school calendar ahead of time and come prepared to the meeting knowing which session will work best for your family’s schedule. Session dates are on the reverse side of this flyer.
• Each radKIDS class allows a maximum of 20 students. Since these classes remain in high demand, your child might be “waitlisted” for your first session choice. Please decide ahead of time whether or not your second session choice will work for your family’s schedule.
• On a first-come, first-served basis, parents may register their child(ren) for one of the three radKIDS classes being offered this year. These classes are for CV students who have not yet participated in radKIDS. No exceptions will be made at this time.

This Parent Night is MANDATORY for those wanting to enroll in the 2018-2019 classes and the ONLY opportunity to register for radKIDS this school year.
