Reminders for the Week
Reminders for the Week:
72% of the school year complete!
46 more LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES to maximize.
Eagles,
I pray you got much rest and enjoyed your break with your family or friends. As we return for our last nine weeks with students let's use that energy to focus on the goals you have for yourself and students! Growth happens daily when we live with purpose and a plan to reach our goals.
Jimmy Casas says in the book Culturize, "You are the difference between today and tomorrow." He points out that "Hope is not a plan, but it is the beginning." Every success begins with one person that believes his or her actions can be the CHANGE to make that difference.
I believe you ALL are the leaders that our students need! Let's greet our students with fresh eyes, hopes, and plans to help them FINISH this school year strong.
