Dear Eisenhower Families,
The New Year is upon us and the students have come back well rested and ready to learn. In the spirit of the New Year, we would like to encourage you to sit with your child to set goals for their learning. Whether it be chores around the house, tying shoelaces, coloring, cutting, drawing, printing, learning sight words, reading 100 books with them, or making good choices, etc., setting goals provides a strong foundation in developing a growth mindset. Growth Mindset is premised upon the belief that all people can accomplish goals and improve themselves through dedication, grit, hard work, perseverance, and resiliency. More importantly, it is all of our jobs to encourage and instill this belief in the children. When others believe we can get "smarter", "improve" ourselves, or accomplish greater things, we rise to the occasion and give greater effort. However, it all starts when believing in and encouraging others to reach their full potential. If you haven’t done so already, I encourage you to set goals with your child and create expectations that will have a resounding impact on the outlook and lifelong learning of your child.
