This is the first week of the 5th Six Weeks and we will be working very hard for the approaching STAAR State Exam. Students we are not done yet we have a long way to go so be prepared everyday. I would like to congratulate our students for a great job on their benchmarks but it does not mean that you let your guard down. We still have a lot of work ahead of us.
My expectations for all students is to succeed at
everything you possibly can. It means to accomplish, master, understand, and
complete tasks, concepts, and processes at your grade level and beyond—or
beyond what you are used to doing.
To succeed just follow
the list below on a daily basis:
1. Be prepared. Do your work.
2. Do your work well. Do all your work.
3. Do your work on time. Take homework seriously.
4. Turn in your homework. Try hard.
5. Put forth effort. Bring all your supplies to class.
6. Be ready to learn. Study for tests. Listen.
7. Participate. Listen and learn from others.
8. Share your ideas. Finish what you start.
9. Reflect on your work. Make good decisions.
10. Push yourself beyond the easy. Don’t settle for mediocre
work.
11. Try new things. Ask for help.
