Core Values
One of our Core Values is Behave With Care. We set
a goal of entering one positive behavior per student every trimester. With
progress reports due on Friday, we are half-way through Trimester 1, and I hope that you have provided at
least half of your students with a positive behavior in MyNHA. The purpose of
this initiative is to support a positive classroom culture; decrease attrition;
and strength communication between home and school.
This
can only be done if the positive behaviors are genuine. If you try to enter all
the behaviors in the last week of the trimester, it takes away from the
authenticity. If you haven’t started, I strongly encourage you to start on
Monday.
A huge
shout out to my top 10 staff members who have the most positive behaviors
entered into MyNHA, especially Ellen
Poole who has
153 positive behaviors
entered in only 27 days of school. That means that she is averaging almost 6
positive behaviors a day. WOW! Thank you for seeing the good in our students.
Leadership Opportunities
Please make sure you take time to meet with your leadership committee and
complete THIS agenda. Leadership committee agendas are due to Robyn on October 11.
