The 4th Quarter Edition

4th Quarter Reflections

Here are some questions for your family dinnertime conversations this weekend:

• It’s now the 4th quarter. What do you need to do to finish the year where you’d like to be?
• For which courses will you need to put more emphasis/effort?
• The end of the year is filled with games and concerts, AP exams, awards nights, and fun stuff like prom. Have you coordinated your activity calendar with the big assignment that are due at the end of the year?
• Who is going to be part of your prom group? Do you trust each of these people to make good choices?
• What are you going to do to ensure a relaxing, yet rewarding summer?
• What are your fondest memories of this school year?
• What do you want to change for next year?
