Report Cards and Interviews Are on the Horizon
The road to success goes through École Parkdale School.
With report cards coming home on March 12th, reflecting your child's achievement and attitude, it may be a good time to ponder about the future of our children. We all know that in these highly competitive times, the one thing that is certain is that our children NEED a solid education. Providing this is a collaborative venture between parents and the school. Your child will be a success in school if he/she masters these three "A's"
ATTENDANCE: Businesses know how important attendance is and when hiring will often call schools to ask about the individual's attendance at school. Teach your child that attendance is important. You go to work even if it's cold out or if you are feeling "a bit under the weather". At school, new lessons are taught each day, and practice is provided. Excellence attendance is the key to success!
ATTITUDE: Jesse Jackson says, "It's your attitude, not your aptitude that determines your altitude." In other words, the brightest student may be a failure if he/she does not do their work. Let your children know you expect them to try their BEST at ALL TIMES. A positive attitude both in and out of the classroom is the second key to success.
ACHIEVEMENT: Help your child learn to set goals - in school and at home. Then support him/her as they work to achieve those goals. Setting goals and working hard to achieve them is the third key to success!
