Toys in the Classroom
These fidget imposters are a huge distraction and are not allowed in the classroom. Please take a peek in your child's backpack to make sure they don't have these things. Real fidgets are still allowed for those kids that truly have attention issues, but they should not be passed around to others as one man's fidget is another man's distractor!
Practice STAAR Results
Counselor Corner
February guidance lessons will be about respecting differences. We must teach our students that different does not equal bad. For example, another student may bring a lunch to school that looks very different from your lunch. If you respect differences you could ask about it and be open to learning. Sometimes students are quick to say “What is that?...it looks weird.”
