Motivation is crucial to success. There is motivation behind every action. We will assist in motivating by keeping comments positive, providing small increments of instruction, maintaining close proximity, acknowledging talents, promoting an openness to change, listening to others, and modeling the actions we want to see in order to improve the performance of all at our school. We are committed to proving a nurturing, supportive environment through the above actions for teachers and students.
Motivation is important because it is the driving force to achieve personal success. Our role as teachers is to learn what motivates each student and then utilize that knowledge. We will continually use sincere praise and maintain high standards. Students will become engaged in their own learning evidenced in academic achievement.
