Week of 12.2.19
Hello Brave Community!
Happy Monday Evening! I hope that you all had a restful
and blessed Thanksgiving Break. I took full advantage of the
opportunity to relax and spend quality time with my family and
friends. While I enjoyed my week off, it feels great to be back on campus. There
is positive energy in the air; our staff seems refreshed and prepared to
provide each of our BRAVE students an amazing teaching and learning experience
here at DFT!
As
a Leader in Me campus, we highlight one of the Seven Habits of Highly
Effective People each month. Our
habit of the month this month is Habit 3: Put First Things First! We teach our students to prioritize and
spend time on things that are most important.
Word of the Week
(WOW):
This week’s word is “PHENOMENAL”. It is an adjective that means very remarkable
or extraordinary. Partner with us in
focusing on our campus WOW. Ask your
student to use the word in a sentence or perhaps you could be very intentional
in your use of our word. Thanks for your
participation!
Penguin Patch (Kids’
Holiday Shop):
Our PTA needs your help. They are hosting a holiday store on campus
that will allow our students to purchase gifts for their friends and family. If
you are able to help, please contact Sarah at 708.275.9320 or sarah@dftpta.org

My Belief:
I consider it a
privilege and a blessing to serve the Double File Trail Elementary Community as
the principal. I believe in our students and their ability to
achieve excellence in education. I want to partner with you to make this
happen. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me or any member of my
team in support of your child’s education. We are ALL here to
support and encourage our students to BE BRAVE, CHOOSE KIND and LEAD ON!
