Counselor's Corner
Hello LVES Families! In our guidance lessons this month, students will be learning about the character trait of Trustworthiness. Being a trustworthy person means you are honest, reliable, loyal, and deserving of trust or confidence. We will be discussing ways we can be trustworthy people at school and at home. Think of ways you can model trustworthy and honest behavior for your child in your daily activities. “We learned about honesty and integrity - that the truth matters... that you don't take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules... and success doesn't count unless you earn it fair and square.” ~Michelle Obama Hola familias de LVES! En nuestras lecciones de orientación este mes, los estudiantes aprenderán sobre el rasgo del carácter de Confiabilidad. Ser una persona confiable significa que usted es honesto, confiable, leal y que merece confianza o confianza. Discutiremos formas en que podemos ser personas de confianza en la escuela y en el hogar. Piense en maneras en que pueda modelar un comportamiento confiable y honesto para su hijo en sus actividades diarias.
