Social Skills at Home

You are here:
  1. Home
  2. Home & School Connection
  3. Social Skills at Home

The purpose of this show is to focus on parents and families within our district. You play a pivotal role in the life of your child/children. They look to you for comfort after a long day, help with homework, and when they received a good grade on a test. You are the glue that guides your family to success. The role of the parent may look different from household to household. We see you, value you and are here to support you and your family.

Social Skills at Home

Character is how we live our lives based on an individual’s choices and life experiences, this includes qualities such as being kind, respectful, and persevering.

Personal responsibility deals with the choices and actions that each person takes and shows accountability for those actions. Accepting personal responsibility increases connections with those around us; these include qualities such as empathy, goal setting, and grit.

Critical thinking is the ability to differentiate facts from opinions to make informed decisions. Problem–solving is the ability to find the best solutions in any given situation. Together these skills build a foundation for a successful student. These skills include qualities such as creativity, knowing who to ask for help, perseverance, conflict resolution, and teamwork.

Mentorship is building relationships fostered with hope and guided with purpose. Citizenship is the personal acknowledgment that you belong to a community. Qualities that build upon these values are leadership, empowering others, and active participation in your community.
