Dear JES family
and friends,
Happy New Year!
Welcome back and a special welcome to all of our new families. We are happy to
welcome seven new JES Dragons along with their families. It is a challenge to move during
the school year. I hope you will make them feel welcome and include them in
activities that will help them get involved in our school and community.
Thank you for your
generosity throughout the holiday season. Our Angel Tree program is a blessing
to many of our families. It is such a joy to be a part of it! Our Johnson
families are kind and generous beyond measure. Even in these times when no
one’s money seems to stretch as far as it has in the past, our families showed
great concern and care in making sure that the children in the JES family had a
nice holiday.
LOVE and LOGIC
There has been interest
expressed in having Love and Logic Parenting classes. If you are interested in
attending classes, please contact me via email at Elizabeth.johnston@southlakecarroll.edu
. For more information about the Love and Logic philosophy visit www.loveandlogic.com . Look
for more information in the coming weeks about a class forming.
Our character trait for January is COMMITMENT:
making a plan and putting it into practice. We will be discussing the meaning
of commitment and what that looks like during our guidance lessons and
announcements this month. I hope you will take time to talk with your child about
the benefits of COMMITMENT. Your children are looking and listening to you,
more than you know.
As always, if I can
assist you in any way, please contact me.
Kind regards,
Ziba Johnston - Mrs. J
JES Counselor
