Counselor's Corner
Hello LVES Families! This month during our guidance class lessons, students will be learning about the character trait of Giving. People are giving when they do kind and thoughtful things for others. Children are understanding that people can be giving even without spending money, because giving kindness, compliments, or doing thoughtful things for others can mean so much to people, and make people very happy.
One local church has been very giving, and has collected donations to help our elementary students in need. I will have some gift certificates available for families that need help with purchasing Thanksgiving meals and groceries. If your family could use assistance with this, please let me know. You may call me at (512) 267-8300 ext. 4504, or email me at amy_sexton@lagovista.txed.net.
Thank you!

Hola familias de LVES! Este mes, durante nuestras clases de orientación, los estudiantes aprenderán sobre el rasgo del carácter de Dar. Las personas dan cuando hacen cosas amables y reflexivas por los demás. Los niños comprenden que las personas pueden dar incluso sin gastar dinero, ya que dar amabilidad, elogios o hacer cosas bien pensadas para los demás puede significar mucho para las personas y hacerlas muy felices.
Una iglesia local ha sido muy generosa y ha recolectado donaciones para ayudar a nuestros alumnos de primaria que lo necesitan. Tendré algunos certificados de regalo disponibles para las familias que necesitan ayuda con la compra de comidas y comestibles de Acción de Gracias. Si su familia podría necesitar ayuda con esto, hágamelo saber. Puede llamarme al (512) 267-8300 ext. 4504, o envíeme un correo electrónico a amy_sexton@lagovista.txed.net.
¡Gracias!
