Clinical Corner
With the end of 2024 approaching, it seems it would be a good time to do some self-reflection. Listed below are some categories and ideas to help yourself, your children and your students do just that. Hopefully, there will be a couple of quiet moments to jot down some thoughts and set yourself up for your best year yet!
What made you feel most alive this year?
What’s one thing you learned?
What accomplishments made you feel most proud?
What can you improve on?
What habits helped you stay focused and on track?
What advice would you give to your future self?
You might also want to consider creating a self-care plan by reflecting on what will help you take care of yourself, such as:
What types of food make you feel the best?
What type of movement feels best for your body?
What helps your mind feel calm?
How much sleep do you need?
When are the best times for you to go to sleep and wake up?
Winter Sport Spectators
Winter sports season is underway. While we appreciate our students wanting to come out and support their classmates, we are not equipped to provide supervision to student spectators. As a result, students who wish to watch a basketball game or wrestling match must first go home and then return with a responsible adult who will stay with them for the duration of the contest. There will be a sign in process for students and their adult chaperones when they arrive at the contest.
