Parent Resource
Educational research reveals that one of the most important factors that can influence how much a student achieves above his/her potential is the teacher having high expectations for each student. Teacher expectations can be felt by our students by words, actions, and body language. We strive to expect a lot out of our students because we know it matters a lot. Turns out, holding high expectations for your kids is really important in parenting as well. The article this week speaks to the rationale and application of this principle.

School Culture
During our weekly Homeroom lessons, students participate in activities that seek to enhance their understanding of positive social interactions and situations. Coming up in the next two weeks, Mrs. Morton and I will be visiting classrooms to interact with students about what it takes to build on our positive school culture by focusing on recognizing and responding to bullying/harassment situations and school safety.
