Learning Expectations

On days that your child is learning at SCHOOL, he/she is expected to:

• Bring required materials to class (green folder, data notebook, assignment book/planner, and all completed work)

• Work hard, be respectful, and have a positive attitude!

Learning takes place ALL the time-even at home! When your child is not in school for any reason (illness, vacation, or even scheduled weekend, holiday or school breaks) we believe that your child is still learning! Consider these strategies to help ensure a positive outlook on education, even from home:

• Be an example! Model a positive, encouraging attitude in all that you say, do, and believe. Optimism is contagious!

• Help your child change negative thinking patterns and eliminate negative talk.

• Help your child visualize positive outcomes for all scenarios.

• Be your child's biggest fan.
