IB Attribute
Our learner profile attribute for the month of November is COURAGEOUS.
Students who are COURAGEOUS have courage to try new things. They try to solve problems in a lot of ways. They have the bravery to tell people what they think is right.
How can parents help to develop students who are Courageous at home?
If your child is feeling uneasy about trying something, encourage them to attempt it and then reflect on both whether they liked the activity and how it felt to try something new.
Your child might want to set some short-term goals. Consider activities that make him/her nervous. What are realistic goals for the week? Your child might set a goal to:
Offer an opinion in class
Spend one recess with someone they might not usually play with
Order something different form the lunch menu
Try an activity they haven't tried before
Be careful to explain to your child the difference between being courageous by trying new things and doing dangerous things.
Kindness for Veterans
Sargeant would love to spread some kindness for Veteran's Day by making cards to share with some local vets. This is something you can do at home as a family. All you need is paper, a pencil, and markers or crayons! Keep it short and sweet and let a veteran know you appreciate their service to our country. You can turn your handmade cards into the office and Mrs. Rainey or Mrs. Vandivier will deliver them. Thanks!
Safety Drill Practice:
Sargeant students and staff successfully practiced a lockdown drill on Friday morning. Staff will provide feedback for continuous improvement.
Morning Drop Off and Afternoon Pick Up
Loading Zones:
Please make sure to remain in your car when you are in a loading zone on North Cirby. If you are planning on walking with your student to or from the gate for entry or exit, please park in areas that are designated for parking. The cars parked in the loading zones are impeding the progress of the cars flowing through to pick up/drop off.
Red Curb:
Please do not park where curbs are painted red. We need those areas clear for emergencies and safety.
Entry and Exit from the Parking Lot:
The Sargeant parking lot has an entry driveway and an exit driveway. Please make sure to enter and exit through the designated driveways. Please avoid parking in the driveway areas.
I realize that drop off and pick up can get stressful and convenient parking is sometimes a challenge. Mr. Gary is ready to help cross families at the crosswalk as needed.
Student Council:
Sargeant will hold our annual canned food drive from November 13th - December 8th this year! Join in the season of generosity by gathering canned foods and non-perishable food items to donate to your child's class beginning on November 13th. Everything we collect will be donated to our local Placer County Food Bank!
Unfortunately, they are unable to provide us with boxes this year. If you have any extra cardboard boxes, we would love to use those as a means to collect our donations! We are looking for 20 medium-large cardboard boxes for our canned food drive. Please bring them to the office if you have any extras to spare!
Please let us know if you have any questions!
