We turn the clocks “BACKWARD” on Sunday, November 5th. The effects on both adults, and especially children, are very genuine.

That Dazed Feeling

Brookwood 167

There’s a reason that [Daylight Savings] changes on the weekend. It’s designed to help us acclimate.

Both parents and children struggle. Parents are often already sleep-deprived. For a child, their attention span, mood, and appetite can be affected.

Here are some ways to help your little one!

Start Helping Your Child Ahead Of Time…

Brookwood 167

  • It’s impossible for your child to adjust overnight. Starting the week before, set his bedtime for 15 minutes later. Accordingly, wake-up times should be adjusted by 15 minutes also.
  • By the time the clocks change, your child will find the adjustment easier.

Dim The Lights…

Brookwood 167

  • About 30 minutes before bedtime, make sure all electronics are turned off in your child’s room. At this time, the lights should be dimmed as well.
  • The National Sleep Foundation has found electronics adversely affect sleep quality, sleep time, and daytime alertness.
  • Also, try to have your child take advantage of as much natural light as possible.

Routines Matter…

Brookwood 167

  • Develop and stick to a bedtime routine.
  • Often, kids wind down easier after receiving a warm bath and a bedtime story.
  • Snuggling can never be overrated!

Is Your Child Currently Getting Enough Sleep?…

Brookwood 167

  • Don’t wait for [Daylight Savings] to end to monitor sleep.
  • Go into the time change already well rested.

Sympathy Goes A Long Way…

Brookwood 167

  • Be kind to both your kids and yourself.
  • Adults feel groggy and sluggish during this time.
  • Remember, it won’t last forever!

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
