Tips of the Month
Guidance
Check out some of our guidance tips for
your child.
Counseling Tip
for the Month:
All students should have their Agenda Books
by now. If your child does not have one, they can purchase it from
the school store before homeroom, during lunch or after school.
Please encourage your child to use the Agenda Book to record daily
assignments, long term projects, school wide activities and personal
goals.
The Agenda Book is an excellent tool for daily
communication between home and the classroom. Ask to see your child’s
Agenda Book daily to keep track of assignments, test/quizzes and
projects. Check out the Passport Log to see the many places your
child has visited during the school day. The Agenda Book houses
many other tools that can be used for various assignments. For more
information about these tools, log onto http://www.discoverzone.com/login.html?url=/
Guidance counselors will be meeting with all
students in small group settings September 19th-30th to review the
purpose of the Agenda Book and how to use it, organization, goal
setting, and adjustment to school.
