Mission Maximize!
LVJHS Weekly Bulletin 11/13/2015
Dear LVJHS Family,
The school year is flying by fast! At the end of this week, we will be on Thanksgiving Break. In the week ahead, let's make sure to Maximize Instruction, Maximize Instructional Opportunities, and Maximize Our Potential! Everyday is an important step toward completing Mission Maximize. Our mission is important because it puts us in the best possible position to make sure our students are successful. Everything we do is to serve our students and our community, so we must always make sure to make the most of our opportunities to do so.
Thank you all for making LVJHS a great place for students!

LVJHS Celebrates Veterans!
Staff Spotlight: Dale Kotzur!
We are proud to announce Mrs. Kotzur as our staff spotlight for the week! Mrs. Kotzur has been serving our district for over 20 years. Her kindness and love for children has shined brightly throughout our educational community. Mrs. Kotzur demonstrates a genuine commitment to our students every single day, and takes on new job responsibilities with flexibility and a positive attitude! We are very excited to celebrate Mrs. Kotzur as our staff Spotlight team member of the week!
Fundamental Five Focus...
Research by Marzano indicates that the effective use of reinforcement in the classroom produces a 20-48% gain in student achievement. Focus on recognizing student achievement and progress as well as reinforcing the work and effort it took to make that happen. Personalize the R & R and make it specific to the task at hand. Consistently use this practice to improve and support higher levels of student achievement!
