Wednesday, December 10, 2008 @ 11:06:09 CST  As part of the strategic plan, the Curriculum Committee has created a list of keys to a successful year to be placed in each classroom. These items will be talked about at each grade level in order to build student understanding of what it takes to be successful in school. A large part of this program is to have students grow a sense of responsibility for their own performance and work in school. We want each student at District 106 to know how success looks, feels, and sounds.Please help us to reinforce these expectations by going over them with your child at home.
