What Do We Need Right Now?
In the short term, which is now, one of our
goals is to have our school’s image and reality be a CALM school. We know that
in order for students to be ready to learn, their brains and bodies must be
calm and alert and the environment in which they learn must be calm and
conducive to learning. There is a far better chance of optimal learning to
occur for each child with fewer distractions.
With optimal learning in mind, we have come up with a few
expectations to have us get started on being calmer than ever before. With parent support, we know we can get
ut short term goal happening this week, if we all work together!
