Principal’s Message Sooner or later, your child will experience failure . The way we deal with this failure will help shape their character. Here are some strategies we use with students to help them handle failure:

1) Always let them know you care about them unconditionally.

2) Think about the positives . Mistakes are really opportunities for learning. What can we learn from this experience?

3) Praise what you can. “ Your team lost, but what a great catch you made in the 2nd half!”

4) Be realistic. As long as they are giving their best effort, do not let them think you are disappointed .

5) Be a role model: Handle your failures and mistakes in positive ways as well.

6) Don't dwell on the failure. When they are done talking about it, let it go.

7) Don’t put down the teacher or coach. They may have a plan you cannot yet see.. Also the children will be less likely to respect the adult if they think you do not respect them.

8) Do not solve every problem for them. It tales perseverance and effort to overcome our obstacles. If we bail them out every time, they will become dependent on us.

“A failure is not always a mistake, it may simply be the best one can do under the circumstances. The real mistake is to stop try-

Giving back to our community! Our Community needs our help….

What would the holidays be like without the traditional family meal? It just wouldn’t be the same

without Mom’s special recipes...would it! Many families face the reality of a different kind of holi-

day season, for them it’s not a time to count their blessings, it’s just another day to survive.

Box of Love helps provide needy families in the community a beautiful, traditional holiday meal of

a canned ham, corn, green beans, soup, bread, fruit, juice, dessert and more. This is an oppor-

tunity for you to help the hungry, the homeless, the lost and forgotten. This program has helped

serve over 12,000 families...nearly 100,000 people who need someone to care. An Information

flyer will be coming home soon. The donation period will run through the 13th of November.

Please help give back to our community.
