Guidance & Family Values

All families work to instill values and traits. At RES, we want to do the same. The following traits and values are what we are striving to instill in all who walk through our doors.

 

9 Family Values

  • Kindness: being generous, considerate, and friendly
  • Integrity: doing the right thing no matter what
  • Growth Mindset: belief that you can get better at something by dedicating time, effort, and energy
  • Initiative: doing what needs to be done without being asked
  • Self-Advocacy: being able to voice your needs, thoughts, and feelings
  • Awareness: being aware of what is going on around you and responding appropriately
  • Accountability: accepting responsibility for your actions
  • Responsibility: doing what you are expected to do
  • Work Ethic: believing that hard work matters and helps you grow
  • Perseverance: not giving up when something is hard

Ways to Promote Family Values:

When students are caught using a family value they will be nominated for a Refrigerator Moment. They will receive a shout out on morning announcements, a treat, and a magnet to remember this moment.
