October: Responsibility

October is also Anti-Bully Month, Positive Attitude Month & Red Ribbon Week

Responsibility is doing the right thing and being accountable for my actions.

Quotes:

Week 1: “It is not what happens to you but how you react that matters.” – Epictetus (Quote# 1, Slide#5)

Week 2: “If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours.” - Dolly Parton (Quote# 13, Slide# 17)

Week 3: “It takes a strong person to say sorry, and an even stronger person to forgive.” – Unknown

Week 4: “Life is all about making choices. Always do your best to make the right ones and always try your best to learn from the wrong ones.” – Unknown (Quote#27 Slide# 31)

Responsibility looks like:

I am accountable for my actions.

I complete assignments by their due date.

I return materials to where they should be.

I follow the rules.

I am helpful without being told to do it.

Responsibility Sounds like:

I speak up about unfair treatment of myself and others.

I listen when the teacher is speaking.

I think before I speak.

I raise my hand to speak.

I use kind words that do not hurt others.

I speak the truth.

Responsibility feels like:

I feel dependable.

I feel proud.

People can count on me.

I feel safe and orderly.

I do what is right, not what is easy.

My promises mean something.

I feel trustworth.

At WEE, we live by a motto that we recite each day. "Make today better than yesterday and tomorrow better than today". Each day is a new opportunity to do better, try harder, and make a positive impact on those around you. This is something students AND staff embody. We also live by our WEE 3. WEE are respectful, responsible, and ready to learn. All Warriors (students and staff) must show respect to each other and the school community, take responsibility for their own learning and behaviors, and come each day ready to learn something new.

Your Warrior Leaders and I are excited to see how our WEE Warriors grow in these areas this school year.
