Henry PBIS: Habit 3: Put First Things First: Work First Then Play ● “I do the things I have to do before I do the things I want to do. I stay focused on what I am doing. I try to minimize distractions and regroup if I get off task. I spend my time on the things that are most important.” For the month of November, students are focused on Habit 3. Be sure to talk to your child about what they can do to minimize distractions when they get off task. Community: Irving Park Community Neighborhood Association will have their community meeting on November 8th at 7:00 p.m. at Henry School's auditorium.
