Brazoswood Parent Newsletter #5
Good Afternoon Parents and Students,
Our word for August and September is Self Direct. Self Direct: Setting goals for who you want to be and what you want to do. Then, take steps on your own to get there. We are in the first 9 weeks of the semester. Ask your child, “What goals do you want to achieve for the first 9 weeks of school? What steps will you take to accomplish your goals?”
