On Monday, February 28th, Battle Creek Elementary had their monthly mission celebration. The mission for the month of February was to 'Improve by 1% Each Day'. Students worked on that mission through writing goals for themselves, through holding each other accountable, and by doing their very best each day to focus on a 'Growth Mindset' instead of a 'Fixed Mindset'. Students were rewarded for positive behavior throughout the month with recognition slips and then students' names were drawn to receive awards, which are pictured below. Those rewards were Brownies and Ice Cream, Class Extra Recess, and Lunch With the Principal. Also pictured are the students and staff that had birthdays during the month of February.
Our March Mission is to 'Control What We Can Control'. There are many extrinsic factors that are outside our control that make an impact on our daily lives, but this month we are choosing to focus on the things we CAN control instead, such as our reaction(s) to those extrinsic pieces and our daily effort to be our very best. The students will work on this mission throughout the month of March.
