News from Mrs. Brtek's Guidance Class

 Students in Mrs. Brtek’s Guidance classes are off to a great start!

In Guidance classes,  students are learning about having a growth mindset. They are learning about the power of “yet”. For example, instead of saying “I am not good at reading”, we say “I am not good at reading YET”. In this way, we are encouraging ourselves to keep trying and to never give up. As the school year goes on, all grades will also learn self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision making. Our Guidance classes will build confidence, foster belonging, and teach the social skills that kids need to thrive at every stage of their educational journey.
