Paving the Way for Success: FRESHMAN PARENTS
1) Check grades online with Skyward (every other week).- Contact Mrs. Peterson for log-in at [email protected] Set appropriate expectations for grades
2) Work with teachers directly for classroom concerns.- Students should first advocate for him/herself. - If parent involvement is necessary after the student has talked to his/her teacher, parent should contact:
- Teacher, then (if needed)…- Counselor, then (if needed)…- Academic Vice-Principal (Ms. Clark)
3) Help your students set up a balanced routine- Work together on a schedule – time for school, sleep, meals, and fun!

4) Be supportive & positive about school.- School and transitions are hard!
5) Help them handle the tough times, but don’t do it for them.- Remind students it’s OK to have a teacher you don’t like, a rigorous class, or an awkward social moment. Offer support, but also give them a chance to navigate on their own and build skills.
6) Monitor their digital devices.- Students can get distracted, lose sleep, and develop drama with social media. Be informed of their activities!
