Mission Maximize!
LVJHS Weekly Bulletin 1/15/2016
Dear LVJHS Family,
Walking around our campus during the school day is quite an experience. We have a special group of staff and students here at our school. The dedication and quality of our staff creates such a positive environment here at LVJHS! It is exciting and inspiring to be part of the LVJHS Family. Henry David Thoreau once stated: "It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see." It is easy to see great things are happening here at LVJHS. The pictures in this week's bulletin tell our story in a compelling manner. Our staff is the best, and you make a difference in the lives of our children every day.
Thank you all for making LVJHS a great place for students!

Fundamental Five Focus...
We will statements give the overall focus of the learning objective for that day’s instruction. Lesson frames should be concise and specific to what will be learned that period. General or very ambiguous lesson frames are ineffective and will not give insight to what will be taught. This instructional filter is essential to guiding the lesson and giving the student a framework to place the instruction within.
