Dear Parents and Students,
I would like to welcome you to the first addition of my blog! I plan on using this blog to convey my thoughts as well as important topics or themes. Today I would like to take a minute to reflect on my first couple months and the importance of routines.
I would like to thank teachers, parents and students for making my first couple months at Oak Ridge a great experience. One of our greatest strengths is our ability to make everyone feel like there are part of a community. We have had a new principal, new teachers, and new students this year and in each case they have been welcomed with open arms. It is a pleasure to be a part of a community that goes out of their way to make everyone feel comfortable and accepted.
The beginning of the school year is a time to establish new routines and develop a plan that will work best for each individual. I know I have spent my first couple of months establishing a routine that will work best for me. Below is an article suggesting possible ideas for establishing routines at home:
