Power of YET - BE Courageous
First, and foremost, THANK YOU! YouthTruth Survey for families came in at 82% participation, the most out of the entire district. WE ROCK!!! Myself and staff will review the results in the upcoming months, and we will share out our findings.
As you know we recently hosted a K-5th grade assembly called NED’s Mindset Mission. We trust your student was encouraged by the show which taught about having a positive Mindset for learning and life!
Mindset Mission yoyos are still available for purchase during recess from Ms. Lily to support the free show and message. If your student has already purchased a yoyo, here is an important link to help them get off to a good start with proper string length adjustment, click here.
Additionally, here are a couple of our favorite follow up home resources from the Mindset Mission website. You may want to use these with your child as they are designed to go hand in hand with the program.
NED Coloring Face Masks
Parent Encouragement Notes
If you'd like additional resources, they are available here.
And don’t forget to ask your student what they learned in the show about having a growth mindset from YET the Yeti, Captain Kindly and during NED’s visit on the spaceship!
REMINDER - Valentine's Day Guidelines:
- It is the teacher's decision if the class does any Valentine exchange. Teachers know their classes best.
- We include everyone - any cards given will be one for each classmate. Period. Nothing special for a singular classmate.
- Non-food items to be exchanged.
- Exchanges are within the classroom, at the teacher's guidance. Anything for a student outside of their class, should be given outside of school. We do not allow things to be exchanged on the playground, or delivered.
BE Safe. BE Responsible. BE Respectful.
BE YOUR BINKLEY BEST!
Warmly,
Harmony Harvell, Principal
