Parents,

Please read the following tips on how to help your student prepare for school.

·     Encourage regular attendance: Successful students are always in school.

·     Study regularly: Taking good notes and studying every day helps students succeed.

·     Inquire about the student's day:

·     Turn off distracting electronic devices: Good studying cannot be accomplished with the television, radio, computer or other audio or video devices on.

·     Promote consistent reading: Students are encouraged to read a minimum of 20 minutes each night.

·     Ensure students eat: Breakfast is perhaps the most important meal of the day. ·     Ensure students are hydrated: Research tells us that the brain requires hydration to  function well.  A general rule of thumb is students should drink one cup of water per hour.

·     Ensure students get a good night's sleep: Adolescents need a minimum of eight hours of  sleep per night...nine hours of sleep is even better.

·     Help reduce student's stress: Tips include positive self-talk (“I know I can do this”), avoid being rushed and taking deep breaths (the brain needs oxygen to think clearly).

·     Ensure students exercise: Encourage students to spend a minimum of 15 to 20 minutes a day in active physical exercise of some sort.

·     Believing in your student's success: Parents can best support their student by talking   and listening about the student's school day actively, and always providing encouragement  and support.
