Hi LVE families,

From managing impulsive behavior, resisting distractions, learning the art of delayed gratification, to regulating emotions in the face of conflict, self-regulatory behavior is key to your child’s success! Here are 5 strategies to teach self-control to kiddos.

Be clear about rules and expectations

Explain what the rules are, what’s expected, what is and isn’t appropriate, and take the time to give your child regular reminders. The more simple the rules are, and the more consistently you reinforce them, the easier it is for children to meet your expectations

Follow a predictable routine

Have your child get used to a predictable routine with clear boundaries around different activities – learning, independent play, outdoor time, quiet time, eating, bedtime, etc.

Remind! Remind! Remind!

Taking the time to give your child reminders at regular intervals will go a long way in helping them learn the art of self-control.

Use positive reinforcement

Positive praise and reinforcement can increase the likelihood that a child will repeat a desirable behavior. Sticker charts or visuals are a simple, yet effective form of positive reinforcement that can be extremely motivating for kids.

Model positive behavior

Thinking before acting, practicing deep breathing, being kind and compassionate to others, and using appropriate language to express feelings are all positive ways to teach your child self-regulating behaviors to help develop self-control.

WSD will not be in session from Monday, March 25 through Friday, March 29 for Spring Break. We also do not have school on Monday, April 1 and Tuesday, April 2 (PD Day).

St. Charles County public school district students have automatic access to library materials and online resources through the St. Charles County Library. This year, our families were provided the opportunity to opt out of this automatic access when completing annual forms at the beginning of the year. If desired, parents may opt out by working with their school librarian mid-year.

Wear it Wednesday!

Every Wednesday at Lakeview is a House Spirit Day, which we call WEAR IT WEDNESDAY! If your child wears a shirt reflecting their house color, they get one house point. We recognize not all families or students have official house shirts, and we want to recognize students who rock their house colors. As a reminder the colors are:

Altruismo - Black

Amistad - Red

Isibindi - Green

Reveur - Blue

If your child comes to school in a house shirt OR wearing a shirt of their color, they earn a point for their house.

PTO Events

BINGO Night- Friday, March 8 from 6-7:30 p.m.

A parent or legal guardian must call the school office each day a student is absent. Student attendance will be recorded on a daily basis. When a student returns to school after an absence, a note of explanation from the parent, legal guardian, physician, or other health providers, must be submitted for absences to be excused. Failure to submit notes or make telephone calls explaining why a child is absent will result in the absence being marked as unexcused. You can reach our attendance secretary, Mrs. Kim Majesky, at 636-332-2923 or send an email attendance.lakeview@wsdr4.org.

If a student comes to school after 9:00 a.m., he or she will be counted as tardy and a parent must sign them in at the office. Please do not send a late child into the building alone. A pass will be issued by the office secretary to admit the student to class. Students are considered tardy if they are not in their classroom by school start time (9:00 a.m.). Being on time is important. Students who come late miss important educational experiences.

Changes to your child’s dismissal/transportation plans need to be communicated to the teacher or the main office. If you need to make an occasional transportation change (car rider instead of the bus, etc.), you must send a note to your child’s teacher. If that is not possible, you may call the office on the day of the change before 3:15 p.m. so the office staff has adequate time to notify your child’s teacher. You must provide a note or call each day that you want your child to go home in a different manner than usual. Students may not be signed out of the office after 3:30 p.m.
