Dear Hoover Rockets,

Report cards will be sent home with students on Friday, February 3rd. As always, do not hesitate to contact your child’s teacher if you have any questions or concerns regarding your child’s academic progress. With a new semester starting, this is a great time to set some age-appropriate goals with your child. The goals may focus on your child’s academic, social/emotional or behavioral needs.  Here are a few ideas:

•  One goal may be to increase the amount of time your child spends reading independently during the week. Research shows that readers grow as readers read.
•  Perhaps the goal for your child may be to concentrate on learning his/her math fact with greater accuracy and automaticity. Whether the area is addition, subtraction, and multiplication, the goal is to always work to increase the number correct in a given amount of time.
•  Another area for goal setting may be behavior. Has your child been making some poor choices at recess or in the classroom? Perhaps if all notes coming home were positive they could earn a trip for a special treat each week.
• Take a look at our Mission: possible for Hoover Rockets- which one of the areas can your child most use a boost? The five points are: BE SAFE, BE RESPECTFUL, BE RESPONSIBLE, BE KIND and BE PROUD.

 Take Care,

Julie Linn Principal
