💡 Parent Moves: Helping them become "Big Kids" 💡
Help students manage their time.
After checking the take-home folder with your student, begin to establish a process with them so they take responsibility leading that and talking with you about the two sides of the folder. From there, help them manage their time--study time, time for chores, time for play, and time for bed. Then, study time and bed time (7:30pm) become distinct.
Our Character Strong focus for September is Respect
We make it easy for you to discuss respect at home. Just print the following document to support conversations at home about respect.

I hope everyone is having a great start to the school year. Just a friendly reminder - I'm at Sunny Hill on Wednesdays. If you'd like to schedule an in-person meeting, please call 847-842-3565.
Your participation is crucial to your student's success.
Below are some examples of how I can support you, including, but not limited to:
