Maryville Guidance News
February 2017
Classroom Guidance
The next one will be the week of February 27th and will focus on our College and Career Readiness Week. An additional Guidance News that is focused solely on College and Career Readiness Week will be sent out later in February.
KINDNESS DAY
The week before, classroom guidance will focus on Kindness Day and give students various ways and ideas to spread kindness to their classmates, teachers, families and friends. I would love to see each class come up with their own "Random Act of Kindness" and complete it during the day. It can be as simple as each student telling the lunch ladies thank you or writing an appreciation note to someone in the building. I would also love to see staff members participate in it as well.
I will be creating a post survey for students to complete (as a class) regarding how being kind affected their mood for the day.
ABRI Data
Here are the breakdowns for numbers:
January 2017: 2 referrals (making our grand total 24)
January 2016: 5 referrals (total: 30)
January 2015: 11 referrals (total 52)
January 2014: 7 referrals (total 74)
January 2013: 12 referrals (total 47)
Below is a video created by the leadership team to showcase various ways to recognition fellow students at MES. We are going to implement this during Towne Hall, so be sure to review it with your class.
