C.A.R.E.
As parents we want the best for our children; we work hard to provide for them and protect them. At school, we have developed an acronym to help students remember the expectations for behavior, and we ask you to consider incorporating them with your child at home and wherever you travel as a family.
Courtesy – the manner in which we treat each other, our belongings, our home, learning and play environments, and public spaces.
Awareness – our careful attention to our surroundings and our place within it.
Responsibility – being accountable for our actions, our belongings, our learning and play environments.
Enthusiasm – the vigor we give to everything we do.
“All parents need to remember that true happiness comes through having character and discipline, and living a life of meaningful contribution — not by having and doing whatever you wish.”
