TIGERS LEAD

If you’ve visited our school in the past few years, you’ve seen some fairly big changes in our hallways.  We’ve started having themes and decorating in an attempt to draw in people and make our school inviting and welcoming.  Our staff has a goal of ensuring that our building is always warm and welcoming.

 

If you were here for Parent/Teacher Conferences you got a glimpse of our student Leadership Notebooks.  This is where students write and track their goals.  Research has shown that the simple act of writing a goal greatly increases the chances of achieving the goal.  If the goal is broken down into strategies or action steps and is tracked regularly, goals have an even better chance of being met.  We try to help students set an academic goal as well as a personal goal. 

 

My challenge to you is to ask your student what their goals are and how they are coming along towards meeting their goals.  Maybe you can work together to set goals as a family! Be sure to write them down and track your progress because then.you get to celebrate when you meet the goal!
