Habit 3: Put First Things First WORK FIRST, THEN PLAY I spend my time on things that are most important. This means I say no to things I know I should not do. I set priorities, make a schedule, and follow my plan. I am disciplined and organized.

Attendance: Making every day a full day of school.

Absenteeism adds up fast . When students come in late or are picked up early these in’s and out’s can lead to an attendance problem and the parents don’t even realize that they count as part of the students attendance even if it is only the first 15 minutes or the last 15 minutes of the school day .

Parent Corner: Reminder: Box Tops for Education will be collected all year long.

First Annual Pajama Drive!

What: The Salvation Army of Genesee County and Grand Blanc Schools are partnering to collect pajamas for children in need. Where & When: Please bring in a new pair of children’s pajamas to your school’s office, and we will donate them to a child in need during this

holiday season.

Thank you to all that have brought some in, as well as the cash donations. We will be using the cash donations to purchase more PJ’s,
