FHE Principal's Corner - November 2024

Happy Fall Firebird families,

I hope you all enjoyed our Fall break and spent time doing what you love. It was great to see so many of you in the building for Parent/Teacher conferences.  If you are still needing to meet or speak with your child’s teacher, please reach out to them directly to set something up. We want to make sure we keep the lines of communication open. 

As you know, this year we are focusing on Leader in Me and the 7 habits. This month we are learning how to “Put First Things First”. Be sure to ask your child what Habits they have learned and how you can incorporate these into your daily activities. This month, we will also be sharing a survey (MRA- Measurable Results Assessment) to get your input. Please take a few minutes to complete this. The results of this survey will help us in setting our future Leader in Me goals and how we can build community through these habits.

There are several events in the following months. Mark your calendars now, and keep watching our website and app for more information.
