It was so nice to see everyone at Open House last night! I hope you had a great evening practicing lockers, meeting teachers, and seeing friends! I am working hard to have everything ready for your arrival on Tuesday. Here are a few reminders to help get us through the start of the year!

Forms available in the office:
  • Lockers: Lockers take practice. They are old and tired. If you continue to have trouble please let us know so the custodian can take a look at it! There are green slips in the office for exactly this purpose. Fill one out and he will fix it!
  • Schedules: If there is an error on your schedule I want to know about it. There is a blue schedule change request form waiting for you in the office. Fill one out and I can typically get these problems taken care of in the same day. Please keep in mind, we will not make schedule changes based on a preferred teacher, lunch with friends, etc. There must be an academic need.
  • Medication: Does your child take medication at school? Our lovely secretary, Pam Hertzler, has a form for you to fill out.
  • Physical Packets: Plan to play a sport this year? Make sure you have a physical before the first day of practice. Physicals are good for the entire school year. Packets available in the office.
TUESDAY. It is only a few days away! Rest up, get organized, and come to school ready for a great year!

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!
