Set a goal by a date certain. I fear there is no vision or goal setting taking place, just a wait-and-see attitude.

So 20 total minutes out of a students life is too much to ask for? This just sounds like a scapegoat for kids not to play. If it was in their heart to play they would take an extra 20 minutes out of their time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300630627319876005.post-51907452455247184612014-09-11T17:33:00.075-05:002014-09-11T17:33:00.075-05:00Parents, this message is for you.
