Message from Principal Pippin
Here we go into the week before fall break. It sure seems like this school year is going by very quickly. Thank you to all the families who attended our "Time Travel with a Wildcat" last night. We know that reading is so important for student achievement but furthermore, parent and family engagement is even more important. Student-led conferences are next week. Please be sure to schedule this very important meeting with your child's teacher. We are shooting for 100% attendance. We will be serving pizza for those families scheduled to come. Please RSVP by scheduling with the teacher so we may know how much pizza to serve. We can't wait to share all the great things your child is accomplishing at school!

Counselor's Corner
In school counselor lessons, in the classroom, and on the Friday News we teach self-regulation strategies to all students. Your child has a Social Emotional Learning Toolbox of cards at school with multiple strategies for them to use throughout the day if they need to calm down from strong feelings. You may want to ask your child about the color zones of regulation and strategies like cupcake breathing and 5 finger breathing. Hopefully they can teach you some of the calming strategies they are learning at school. They can teach you a strategy to get from the yellow or red zone back to the green zone. Also, in school counselor lessons, we are currently learning about bullying and how to handle a bully. Sometimes students confuse peer conflict or a mean moment with bullying. But true bullying is when a person intentionally tries to hurt another person repetitively over time and there is an imbalance of power. We are teaching students how to positively handle mean moments/bullying by the STOP, WALK, and TALK method. Tell the person who is not being kind to you to STOP, then WALK away from them, and TALK to an adult. Please feel free to contact me if you or your child have a need I can help you with. I enjoy working with your child at SES!!

September: Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind
Beginning with the end in mind means that we take time to define our vision and purpose clearly. We have the opportunity to define outcomes before we act. We can make choices that shape our future, rather than leaving it up to other people or circumstances. Habit 2 aligns with the principles of vision, commitment, and purpose.
