In recognition of…

 

On February 4th, we will take time out of the school day to reward the hard work and determination of a large number of students. This is the date of our next honors breakfast. 

Each six weeks we host an honors breakfast for students who earned a 3.5 or greater on their grade card. Students are called down 1st period. There is a brief moment of recognition of their achievement, pictures, and most importantly – food! For the last two grading periods there has been a phenomenal turn out. Roughly 40% of our students have met the GPA requirements to participate!

Academic Boosters has been absolutely essential in helping us to recognize these students. This is just one of the many things Academic Boosters does throughout the course of a school year. We also have parents who volunteer their time for field trips and dances, provide testing treats, and more. In addition to all of this, they continually show support and appreciation of teachers. Without the help of these people, we would not be able to do what we do.

Focus

Do you have trouble focusing? Here is a fun tip that ANYONE can use, at ANY TIME! All you need is a pen and 1 minute! Step 1: Find a pen or pencil. Step 2: Hold it up to your face, about 1 foot away. Step 3: Focus on the end of the pencil for 1 minute (setting a timer will help you to avoid being distracted). For this one minute of time, do not allow yourself to think about anything else! Just focus on the end of the pencil! This would be great to try before beginning your homework, studying, at the beginning of a big game or race, anytime! I would love to know what everyone thinks of this. I will be trying it also:) I challenge you to use this trick at least once this week! (It might be good to try this before or during the Math & Science testing:) One Minute Life Hack Will Make You Do Everything Better!
