Dr Wright sent this email out to the staff right before the start of school. I think it so appropriate for the start of the school year:
1) Stay Calm - hard advice to follow sometimes, but well worth the effort!
2) Take Good Care of Yourself - get plenty of rest, eat right, exercise, make good choices about your personal well-being.
3) Improve your relationships - Communication is a two way street - do some talking, do more listening. Learn to apologize when you make a mistake.
4) No one can predict your future - Many students come to Tech for a fresh start. Make a mistake yesterday? Start again today.
5) Find a positive role model - Look to your mentors, family friends, a public figure that you admire. I find many role models at Tech - great attitudes, great work ethic, outstanding citizens.
6) Do your best every day - set goals, and work hard to achieve them.
These six items were written by mother, Marje Knudsen, of Beaverton, Oregon. Really great advice for the beginning of a school year!
