Keys to Success in Secondary School
Education is a partnership. Everyone works together making your transition from Elementary to Secondary school successful.
Tips for Students:
- Relax and enjoy the experience of secondary school.
- Get involved... join a club or team.
- Keep organized.
- Do your homework every night.
- Ask questions.
- Strive for balance in your life.
- Attend every class... miss a day, miss a lot.
- Stay healthy... get enough sleep and eat right.
- Be active. Set aside time for daily physical activity.
- Make time for reflection and prayer. Feed your soul.
Tips for Parents/Guardians
Remember, education is a partnership between you and the school:
- Ask about school every day. What are you studying in Geography? What did you do at lunch time?
- Ask to see notebooks and the school planner.
- Call the school with any concerns or questions. Your son/daughter's Guidance Counsellor will be very helpful!
- Attend all school functions and talk to us! Teachers work best when they know the "story behind the desk".
- Encourage your son/daughter to take advantage of all opportunities for extra help.
- Join the School Council.
