YOU can make a difference in helping your child

Dear Families,

As we pass the mid point of the school year, it is not uncommon to see children get a little more casual about completing class work and homework. Persistence to do your very best at all times is a character trait we would like you to help us foster in your child(ren).
A persistent attitude is a key quality to experiencing success in school and life. There are many people in our country’s history that never gave up, persisting on through hard times and failures, to reach an important goal. Abraham Lincoln, for example, lost eight elections and failed twice at business attempts, but because he never gave up, became one of the most influential presidents our country has known. It is this spirit of persistence that we hope to develop in all our students.
How can YOU make a difference in helping your child develop persistence?
1. Gently steer your child into activities that will give him a sense of accomplishment.
2. Encourage your child to always finish what she started, whether it is a book, a movie, or a class assignment.
3. Encourage risk taking and trying new things, such as a sports team or trying out for a play. Discuss success and defeat, as there are valuable lessons in both.
4. Offer situations for your child to practice decision making skills. Let him choose what to have for dinner, or who gets to rake the leaves and who gets to bag them.
 
Always stand supportive with patience and encouragement. Celebrate successes, however little they may seem to you. And remember, there will be frustrations along the way, but these will be opportunities for discussions and growth. Whether it’s winning a game, or losing a library book, your child will need you there for cheering, encouragement, and support.
 
Sincerely,
Dr.Yakich, Principal 
 
Mrs.Deiter, Assistant Principal

Each month students have an opportunity to have lunch with the principal and play board games with her.  Students are given Viking Vouchers throughout the day for doing something extra special such as picking up trash around the campus, helping a friend, sharing, walking on the blacktop, etc.  The Viking Vouchers are placed in a basket in the front office.  Each month, names are selected to have lunch with the principal.  Those students selected will bring their lunch to Dr. Yakich's office and play board games with her.  This is a great opportunity to reward students for their efforts!
