Top Secret Tips for Success
Buy a combination lock before school begins and practice opening the lock.
Avoid “Super-sized” backpacks that can carry 50 pounds (Smaller = Better Organization).
Ask your child open-ended questions to learn about their school experiences each day.
Get acquainted and communicate with teachers, administrators, and sponsors.
![Page 35: Welcome Future Titans! 2014 ~ 2015 Graduating Class of 2021.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022102900/551a1a4255034654788b4642/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Highlights to remember…
Stay involved. Monitor your child’s progress. Teach organizational skills daily for the first
few months of school. (Then be prepared to reteach them every year after that!)
Ask questions of administrators and teachers. Don’t wait. Call or e-mail.
Attend school events. Volunteer in school. Communication is major
key to success!!
