Parent Bulletin

Dear Parents,
The 2017-2018 School Report Cards (SRC) were posted publicly on Friday, January 25, 2019, on the TEA website. Our campus is responsible for sharing the SRC with parents. Please note, this information is available in the link located below this message. Additionally, this information will be sent home with your child today. Please contact me if you have questions about how to read or interpret this report.
As we move in to state testing season, our staff will be working with our students through tutorials and academic interventions. We will also be teaching and reteaching our students about the importance of having a Growth Mindset. More and more research is supporting the connection between personal achievement and having a Growth Mindset. Carol Dweck, the researcher who identified the concept, states: "In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work—brains and talent are just the starting point. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment. Virtually all great people have had these qualities." Dweck's words paint a big picture view of the term "Growth Mindset." Understanding a Growth Mindset requires understanding Fixed Mindset. When we replace Fixed Mindset behaviors with Growth Mindset behaviors, we set ourselves up for continuous improvement. Additionally, another crucial aspect of a Growth Mindset is avoiding comparison to others; we must strive for our best--not to emulate someone else.
Empowering our students to live in a Growth Mindset is important for their life long success and well being. Please, feel free to contact me for additional resources on Growth Mindset.
Thank you for your involvement and support!
Respectfully,
Anthony M. Kosub
