Student of the Month

9/10/2012

This year we will continue our Student of the Month incentive program to encourage you and your classmates to build character. If you have good character, you demonstrate that you care about other people, and you care about doing the right thing. If you work on building character, you fill see that your classmates as well as adults have more respect for you.

The acronym we use for our monthly character building goals is JEMS CARES. JEMS stands for John E McCarthy School! Here are those same letters written vertically:

Jumping off to a good start
Effort (academic effort, that is)
Manners
School Spirit
Cooperation
Assertion
Responsibility
Empathy
Self control

Your goal for the month of September is to What are some ways you have tried to "Jump off to a good start" so far this year? What will you do next week to "Jump off to a good start?"
