New Year’s is all about new beginnings. Winter break is an excellent time to access how your children are doing in their studies. How can you help your children make successful New Year’s resolutions? Hint: It starts and ends with you.

Focus On The Fun

Brookwood

  • Once your children are in school, their move toward independence accelerates.
  • This is the time you can guide your children to develop healthy and happy habits.
  • Setting goals should be a fun experience!

Walk The Walk

Brookwood

  • Kids will be looking at their parents to see if they are accomplishing their resolutions.
  • One great way of demonstrating [follow-through] is to create family resolutions.
  • Some ideas include visiting relatives more or setting up a weekly game night.
  • Ultimately, parents have to “Walk the Walk and Talk the Talk”.
  • You are the ultimate resolution role model!

Suggest Resolutions, Never Dictate

Brookwood

Part of the idea around setting resolutions is embracing your child’s growing independence. This is the time that your kid is beginning to gain a greater awareness of themselves and those around them.

  • Work with your child to set short and long-term resolutions.
  • Make realistic goals. You want your child to experience success.
  • Writing down resolutions should be done in a warm and happy environment.
  • Never dictate resolutions. Your child should lead the conversation. Guide your child gently.

Make It A Family Tradition

Brookwood

  • Resolution writing should be considered a bonding experience.
  • Develop traditions for this time, such as sharing a glass of apple cider or hot chocolate, to be enjoyed while writing.
  • Whether you’re an adult or child, it’s easy to forget these resolutions.
  • Check with your kids on a periodic basis to see how they’re doing.
  • Hold your discussion while enjoying a special treat.
  • Resolutions should be considered something positive.
  • Tweaking their goals (reasonably) is okay.

Brookwood School District 167 relies on parent
feedback when planning for the future.

Dear Parents/Guardians/Families:

We highly encourage you to complete the 5 Essentials Survey for your child’s school. Your feedback matters. We use this feedback to develop school improvement plans and activities to make continuous improvement. The data needs to reflect the voices of our parents in order to address/validate school concerns or support for existing programs.

Your honest responses are confidential and needed to better inform our upcoming goals and strategies we will be implementing for the 2021-2022 school year.

Please share your input through the annual Illinois 5Essentials survey! The survey is administered by UCHICAGO Impact and is based on the Five Essentials for School Success, an evidence-based framework developed by the University of Chicago.

The 5Essentials Are:

⤷ Effective Leaders      ⤷ Collaborative Teachers       ⤷ Involved Families       ⤷ Supportive Environment      ⤷ Ambitious Instruction

Steps To Complete Survey:

The survey takes about 10-15 minutes to complete; 

⤷ Select the necessary language to complete the survey (English or Spanish);
⤷ Enter the name of your county and the name of your child’s school;
⤷ Advance to survey questions;
⤷ Answer all applicable questions;
⤷ Click Submit Survey

Each school needs a parent response rate of at least 20% to receive a results report. Please complete the survey no later than April 2, 2021.

Thank You For Your Participation!

Bethany A. Lindsay, Superintendent
