001[Music] there's several things that parents can do to make sure that their children are successful at Crockett the first thing is make sure that they are involved in the school and making contact with the parent or excuse me with the teacher as much as possible there's various ways they can do that they can reach out to the teacher directly it can be through a phone call or an email the more support we have from the parent in a connection to the teacher the better the student usually does in the classroom student sees that we're a team and a world working together to support them so number one would be communication on both sides the second one is find another way to be involved in the school so you might want to choose to volunteer on

002field trips or you might just want to come and help out in the lunchroom or you might want to join our newly formed PTO once you become involved one of those ways you have to be more idea of what's happening on the inside of the school and know how you can be supportive of students number one is make sure that they have good communication with their teacher our teachers work very diligently to make sure that students have all the information they need to complete homework assignments and complete assignments outside of the school but also to complete the assignments inside of the school if they are working together with a teacher whether it's a homework issue or not understanding the curriculum or it might be something like feel that they're having some troubles with with bullying

003at school once they reach out to a teacher our staff is always willing to make sure they're there and able to help them issue may arise so we've got we have a lot of good programs in place and it's really our year to hone in on what we have we become the first mindful school in the state of Arizona thing thanks to mindfulness first that has allowed us to really focus on students individual needs and not always think about a group of students the the second thing I guess we're really excited about is we have so many returning teachers to Crockett this year which is unique in education around the valley really getting our experienced teachers to have some time to work with our new teachers that are coming on board this year and really

004creating a new culture at Crockett where you want to stay in that school for your entire career we have a brand new gym that people are dying to come in and use and we can't wait to kind of show it off we're really trying to get our gates open a little bit more after the school day so our school can be used as a park for the students that are around us really opening up more to the community than we have been you know even over the last three years which I think we've done a pretty good job with but we always want to open it up because we are the hub of the Crockett community and have been for 6070 plus years [Music]
