Greetings!
Our fourth full week of school is in the books!
Next week is Homecoming, and student energy will be high with the fun of dress-up days and celebrating our school and District. Younger students have asked, "What's Homecoming?" In reply, Homecoming is a special week where we take time to celebrate our school because we are all proud to be Hornets and are proud of our school! This answer is reflected in our classroom conversations about school pride. Having school pride means we also try our hardest in the classroom and give our best effort. If we can, we attend after-school events and sports. We also encourage others for their success.
Students are always watching and observing us and thus, our thoughts and feelings about school are reflected in them. How do you model school pride at home?
Next week we will continue discussing School Pride in counseling lessons and introducing our first Character Counts, Trustworthiness. So far, there has been great discussion about what it means to be trustworthy and how we display it at home, school, and with our friends. Students have hit the key components of doing the right thing, even when no one is watching, following expectations, being honest, and respecting secrets if given one.
Have an amazing weekend!
