Seems like a no brainer...ALL relationships matter. The ones between collegues here, the ones at home, the ones with our students. HERE are 4 benefits to building positive relationships with students including higher academic achievement, less behavior issues, and more. Even when we get frustrated with students and they challenge us...take a deep breath, a step back, and pause for a moment to remember: WE ARE THE ADULTS. WE are the ones who need to act like it and we have no idea what may be going on in the lives of our students outside of GVMS.
Back to School Night is Wednesday, August 29th, beginning at 5 PM . Be sure to mark your calendars! Families will go through their Vikings' schedule, moving from class to class as the bell rings and ending in the gym for food from Napa Deli for purchase and information from GVMS PTC, Watch D.O.G.S representatives, Experience Church, Attendance Liaisons, Child Nutrition, and more!
