"The Principal's Principle's"

Good Choices - Making a good choice means making the right decision and choosing to do something that results in the best outcome.  Have you ever heard of the saying "Look before you leap"? That is another way of saying that you should always try to imagine what would happen before you choose to do something. Good choices usually result in good consequences.  You should always think about what the result of your choice will be before committing an act.  The choices you make can mean consequences for others, as well as yourself.   In your own life, make sure that you make GOOD CHOICES, so that your actions don't have consequences that hurt others.

Goal Setting

Goal setting is choosing a result that you want to achieve and then making and following a plan that will help you accomplish it. A key to goal setting is to start with a realistic plan.  The best goal is one that is just outside of your reach, so you have to stretch and work in order to succeed.  Write down your goals and make a reasonable plan to follow them.  "Achieving great things takes great planning.  Excellence is never as accident."  Set goals that will help you achieve your best.  Colin Powell said: "If you are going to achieve excellence in big things, you develop the habit in little matters." Set your goals that will help you become whatever you want to be.

"Coins For A Cure"

We are asking students and faculty at Salter Elementary to help the North Talladega County Relay For Life to collect "COINS FOR A CURE" and join communities across the nation in support of the American Cancer Society's goal to find a cure for cancer.  The classroom that raises the most money during January 12-23, 2009 will win a "Sherbert Party" for their classroom. This year's goal for North Talladega County is $72,000.  Let's do our part to help reach the county goal to find a cure for cancer.

School Supplies

The Federal Correctional Institute shared school supplies with us. We felt like it was "Merry Christmas all over again! Angela Babbs and Gus Jenkins represented FCI and brought paper, glue, folders, school boxes, erasers, pencils, etc. At this time during the school year, many students are running low on school supplies, so we are very appreciative of their efforts!!!

FRIENDSHIP

Friendship is a relationship between two or more people who enjoy being together.  Choose good friends who are respectful and kind and who will help you make good choices. Friends listen, care, trust, respect, and understand each other. They laugh, cry, play, work, and learn together.  Without friendship, the world would be a very lonely place.  Each day we should be challenged to make new friends. .  Maybe we could ask a new friend to sit beside us at lunch or choose a different friend to play with at recess.  Everybody needs a friend.  Always remember - The best way to have a good friend is to be a good friend.
