Dear JES family and friends,
Thank you to the PTO for the special week of appreciation they planned for us last week. We truly felt appreciated! Thanks to the PTO for their continued support throughout the year.
CONVICTION is the character value for the month of March. The definition is standing for what is right even when others don’t. Just like that one brave flower blooming before all the others, it’s important for us all to have the courage to be the only one to stand up for what’s right. That’s why we are going to spend the month of March talking about the virtue of CONVICTION.
Our time at school is limited so we rely on your involvement as the parent to help us make the virtue come alive each month! That’s why we are sending home 4 CORE Activities for you and your child to do in the car, at home, or in your community that will reinforce the character virtue we are discussing here at school. C – “car time” will provide a link you can follow to download a song that reinforces the meaning of the virtue. O – “open wide” will be a few discussion starters for around the dinner table that will crack open what this month’s virtue is all about. R – “rest” is an age-appropriate book that you can order online or check out at your local library to read at bedtime, or any time of the day. These books are guaranteed to reiterate this month’s virtue and encourage great discussion with your child. E – “experience” is a creative suggestion for a family activity that will put this virtue into action. Thanks for your participation in building these character skills! Check out the attached activities.
As always, if I can assist you in any way, please call.
Sincerely,
Ziba Johnston
Counselor
