Game Night
Kids really enjoyed themselves last night. The participation was excellent with lots of happy faces and fun interactions. Thank you for planning the event, Angie and Val. Thank you to all the staff that made it a fun event for students.
End of Trimester 2
Please have grade finalized by Tuesday March 12 at 3:30. Thank you!!!!
New Students
We will have 27 new, nervous and excited students on Tuesday. Rudolph Dreikurs noted that discouragement is at the root of all misbehavior and I would add that anxiety and nervous tension can look like crabbiness and short-tempered responses. This mental framework and our approach to learning and teaching are what separate us from many other schools. Student-centered education and student-centered responses to misbehavior is what we do well. All of the new students will be making decisions during their first week of school. They will be deciding whether they can be safe here, if this a welcoming place, and whether this a school where they can learn and grow and be accepted. I believe they will answer all those questions in the affirmative. I hope we can all use this weekend to relax and refresh and be ready to make the third trimester a positive experience for new students, returning students and for ourselves. Thank you for the time and effort you've invested so far and for that which still lies ahead. No other work is as important as what we do and I am so thankful for each of you and for your commitment to Venture students.
