Character Strong Curriculum
This month is all about Perseverance. One way to think about Perseverance is "pushing yourself through challenges and obstacles." We all experience challenges in our lives. We all have moments when we feel like we can’t do it or that we want to give up on a big task. It is important to develop tools that help us worth through those challenges in order to grow in those moments instead of giving up. how might you practice Perseverance as a family this month?
Perseverance is 1 of 3 traits we will focus on throughout the year that helps students Be Strong. Across grade levels, students will be developing skills like focusing, organizing, and goal setting.
We hope everyone had a wonderful and restful winter break!
School resumes tomorrow. For our high school students, it will be a B day schedule.
See you tomorrow!
