Lackland ISD Proposes to Adopt New Science Instructional Materials
The current Texas State Board of Education’s proclamation includes the adoption of instructional materials for science courses. A committee of teachers and administrators from both the elementary and secondary campuses have reviewed state approved materials and narrowed their choices to those they seek to recommend for board approval. Prior to making this recommendation to the Lackland ISD Board of Trustees, the committee is providing an opportunity for parents of children currently enrolled in the district to preview materials and share their feedback. The parent review process is supported by the links provided below and will be open through Friday, March 22, 2024. Parents are encouraged to share their feedback, questions, and concerns with the district using the following link. You may also contact, Dr. Tonya Hyde at hyde.t@lacklandisd.net for prompt attention to your inquiries.

March Students of the Month! |
|
|
1ST Grade:
Abigail is a student that cooperates in everything she does! I NEVER have to ask her to come to the carpet, get out her books for a lesson, line up quietly, or be ready for anything that is going to be taking place here at school. She is willing to help her peers, work independently when she can, and ask for help when needed. Abigail is a student that shows cooperation through and through, she works so well with all her peers. This is why I nominate Abigail Alcedo for the character trait of Cooperation!
|
|
|
5th Grade:
Violet is a student who epitomizes cooperation. She continuously makes herself available to assist others with classroom tasks, including the teacher. She demonstrates excellent leadership skills always stepping up when needed, often times without being asked. She is admired and highly respected by her classmates and encourages others to do their best as well as being an excellent example for her peers. Her willingness to help others is only surpassed by her strong initiative both academically and personally. She meets each day with a welcoming smile and great team spirit.

8 Ways to Help Your Students Build Resiliency One thing we shouldn’t do is shield kids from everyday frustrations. by Samantha Cleaver
We’ve all been there: After passing back the math quiz, a frustrated sigh and “I’ll never be able to do this!” comes from the corner of the room. And we’ve all met the student who’s so afraid of failure that he refuses to try anything new, whether that’s reading a more challenging book or doing a long-division problem that looks more difficult than the one he did yesterday. Then there are the kids who are rarely discouraged. They understand that even if today was tough, tomorrow is a new day.
The difference between the kids who bounce back easily and those who can’t seem to recover from the frustration is resiliency.
Resiliency comes from kids’ beliefs and attitudes about themselves and what happens to them. Fortunately, these internal factors—humor, inner direction, optimism, and flexibility—are traits that we can build or strengthen.
One thing we shouldn’t do is shield kids from everyday frustrations. They need to experience everyday failures and challenges. It’s the kids who never feel frustrated (or who experience excessive stress) who are vulnerable later. Click Here for the full article! |
