Focus This Week
Integrity
Our Medal of Honor character trait focuses on Integrity this month. Integrity is the the ability to act in ways that are consistent with the values, beliefs, and moral principles we claim to hold. It’s about doing the right thing, even when no one is watching; and about courage, honesty, and respect in one’s daily interactions.
ABCs of Growth Mindset
Our ABCs of Growth Mindset this week.
F stands for FEEDBACK. I listen to feedback from others.
Positive feedback, such as giving compliments, expressing affection, and acknowledging your children’s efforts and successful performances, is important in building their confidence, in helping them learn new skills and in maintaining a close and open relationship with them.
At home:
- Give feedback immediately
- Give feedback regularly
- Be specific
- Written feedback can be meaningful as well

Neighborhood Traffic Safety
Our top priority is always student safety! Please be courteous to our campus supervisors, staff, our neighbors, and other drivers when dropping off or picking up. Please be sure you are not blocking driveways and mailboxes in the neighborhood. On trash days, please do not block the neighbor's trash cans either.
Campus opens each day at 7:40 a.m. Avoid the traffic and the rush by arriving before 7:55 a.m. After school we have campus supervision until 2:25. Students should report to their designated pick-up location immediately after school. Students should not be on the playgrounds or wandering around campus.
