Hello, parents and guardians of 7th-grade students! This is a reminder that our Social Studies Fair will be this Friday during school hours. While most students have completed their physical projects, they may still need to review and memorize their content for their presentations. With school closed on Monday due to winter weather and the possibility of more closures on Tuesday, we may only have two school days left to prepare in class.
Please note that some students have left their physical presentations in their homeroom, but they still have all the necessary information typed up and can review and practice at home. We encourage you to have your child take some time to go over their material and practice presenting so they feel confident and ready to share their hard work on Friday.
Thank you so much for your support, and we look forward to seeing their amazing presentations!
What is Respect?
Respect is the willingness and ability to act professionally and thoughtfully with ourselves and others. Leaders can deal respectfully with opposition and provide space for both dignity and differences to coexist.
Why focus on Respect?
Respect contributes to a positive culture. People feel safe, supported, and engaged in the context of thoughtful social, emotional, civic, and intellectual interactions.
Respect decreases conflict. Respect helps us, and others, to be able to express ourselves without fear of being judged, humiliated, or discriminated against.
Respect encourages empathy. Respect helps us to understand each other and put ourselves in someone else shoes.
Respect in Action:
Teach students words have power. How we talk to others and ourselves can motivate or discourage, connect or destroy, hurt or heal. We should choose our words with care.
Create opportunities for group decision-making. Open dialogue engages students in a process where compromise is crucial to making decisions.
Vary protocols for classroom sharing. Frequently use open-ended questions, partner sharing, and small group activities to connect and promote understanding between students.
