Each week, our Middle School Assistant Headmaster, Mr. Dorion Simmons, shares practical tips for student success.

GOAL SETTING FOR THE NEW ACADEMIC YEAR

• Homework & studying - Organization is key for keeping track of multiple assignments and multiple classes | keeping an agenda is essential.
• Essays and projects - Have a plan to break large assignments down into smaller parts with deadlines for each step.
• Reading - Reading is an integral part of a great hearts education. Your scholar should be engaged in reading every night.
• Extracurricular activities - With school work being a priority, extracurricular activities can help balance academics while building other skills.

Construction on Bullard Ave is expected to begin on Monday, August 19 and last for two weeks. The lanes will be reduced on Bullard, and there will be no left turn out of Granada/Palm Ln. onto Bullard Ave. and no turning into Granada/Palm Ln from Bullard Ave. The U-turn onto Bullard (from south to north) will remain open. We ask for your patience as we adapt to the altered traffic patterns. Please reach out to our campus safety coordinator, Mike Johnson, with any questions.

Below is a rough map of one phase of construction to give you an idea of what you may encounter. There are several iterations to traffic flow changes, so please be patient and expect delays.

We are excited to welcome our parents to campus for our Middle School and High School Curriculum Nights. These evenings are an opportunity for parents to meet their child's teachers and learn more about the curriculum at Trivium Prep.
