Every Kid Needs a Champion!
Dear Cougar Family,
I know that for those of you who have been here a while, you have seen this video before, but since we all know that repetition with variation is a key principle of learning, I am sharing it again this week. Every time I watch this, I get all revved up about the incredible opportunity we are blessed with each day to pour into the youth of our nation and build them up to face adulthood in a polarized society (or at least a society that the news makes us think is polarized). It is also a powerful reminder of why relational practices need to be integrated into academics frequently (not just at the beginning of the school year).
When I look around our school, though, I am proud to see that we continue to be a place of "we," rather than a place of "us vs. them." Please take a moment to watch this TedTalk. As you move through this next week, please keep in mind a student (or a few) who needs to be reminded that he or she is a part of our Cougar family and make an overt gesture to make sure he or she knows that you are a CHAMPION for them!
May you all have an incredible week being champions for our Cougars!
As always, COUGAR PRIDE!
Tiffany
