We, at C.P.E., are working on a button blanket featuring our school's 'code of conduct' reminder: RAISE. This stands for Respect All Individuals, Self, and the Environment. It is our aim to have all the members of our school sew a button onto the blanket.
While creating our button blanket, we used the following resources to help us teach about the culture behind button blankets.
