October Character Trait- Responsibility

For the month of October, our focus will be on Responsibility. Students will be learning about and practicing how to:
  • Take ownership of their actions and choices.
  • Follow through on commitments and complete tasks.
  • Make safe, respectful decisions at school and in the community.
We invite you to reinforce this trait at home by encouraging your child to take responsibility in age-appropriate ways, such as completing chores, managing their belongings, and being accountable for their words and actions.

Thank you for your continued support in helping our students grow as responsible learners and community members.
