From the Principal's Pen...

Happy New Year!

January is a great time to "plan" for the future by reflecting on the past and setting goals for the new year.  In January, I always suggest to my faculty and staff that we all take a few minutes to list three things that we would like to see improved this year personally and professionally.  Under each area that needs improvement we list three things that we can do daily to "improve that area".  For example, if we wanted to improve our physical fitness by losing 20 lbs., we could do the following daily:   1) exercise 30 minutes, 2) prepare/plan low fat meals, and 3) drink eight glasses of water.  If we write our goal down, revisit it daily, and make the needed changes listed on our goal sheet for improvement, we can make significant improvements this year!  I challenge everyone to focus on improvements this year both personally and professionally.  No matter what kind of job you do, whether it is in the home or outside the home, it is one that can always be improved.  IF you want to see improvements this year you must PLAN for those improvements.  The best teachers are good role models!  Let's make sure that we all work together to be the best we can be for our children!
