January Executive Function Skills
January Executive Function skills are Emotional Control and Response Inhibition. Emotional control is defined as the ability to manage emotions. Students will be encouraged to be thinking about their emotional state and if that emotional state is conducive for learning. Response Inhibition is defined as the ability to think before you act. Acting inappropriately, have difficulty taking turns, and talking too loudly are several examples of students that lack response inhibition in the classroom. The desired outcome is to have students develop an understanding of when inhibiting an immediate response is beneficial. Please speak with your student about the benefits of emotional control and response inhibition.

From the PTA:
Parents,
First, thank you to everyone that surged to support the Holiday CandyGram event and the Faculty Luncheon. Due to several folks stepping forward, both events were major successes.
Next event is the annual Liberty v. Stone Basketball night which will be on Friday, January 19th, starting at 6:30. It will be held in the Liberty Gym and is open to all students, family and friends. The PTA is involved in 2 ways: ticket sales at the door ($5 + a canned donation) and some simple concession sales (pizza, candy, and water). We'll need volunteers again to man these requirements, so please sign up via this link.
