"No
curriculum overhaul, no instructional innovation,
no change in school organization, no toughening
of standards, no rethinking of teacher training
or compensation will succeed if students do
not come to school interested in and committed
to learning." Lawrence
Steinberg, Phd Psychology author of book (Beyond
the Classroom) about a study
of 20, 000 h.s. students from California and
Wisconsin that finds parents & peers
hold the keys to success in school. University

Our
Assistant Principals wish to help create
and maintain a safe and healthy learning
environment on campus. They perform
many varied activities to further this
objective. If
you have any questions about school policies,
rules or discipline matters, they are
happy to help. Please contact them.
Some
tips to students and parents:
-
Communicate regularly with teachers.
As teacher's are the best source
for information on a student's academic
progress.
-
If
you receive an unsatisfactory report
about your student's progress, make
an appointment with the student's
teacher(s) to learn what's needed
for improvement.
-
Don't
assume that your student is attending
classes regularly, contact the attendance
office or the teacher(s) if your
student is frequently saying there
is no homework and is often home
without textbooks to read.
Assistant
Principals motivate students to emulate
the behaviors that are proven paths
to success. What
is an accurate profile of a successful
student? The following academic sites
all reference Prof. John H. Williams'
(Pepperdine University) "Clarifying
Grade Expectations", The Teaching
Professor, Volume 7, Number 7, August/September
1993. They innumerate the essential
points and clarify the difference
between an "A" and "C"
student behaviors.
