Counselor's Corner
BE THERE:
Being at school all day, every day, helps your child get the most out of middle school. Encourage good attendance with these ideas:
Point out that there is no substitute for being in class. Your tween or teenager needs to be present to hear teachers explain concepts, to participate in group projects and class discussions, and to ask questions.
Schedule all doctor, dentist, and orthodontist appointments for before or after school hours whenever possible. If you can’t, try to arrange them for lunchtime and return to school ASAP.
It will be easier for your child to get up on time for school if he/she has at least nine hours of sleep. Set a reasonable bedtime, make sure he/she puts away all electronic devices so NOT tempted to stay awake to read messages or play games!
