Walker Elementary

Dear Walker Parents & Families,

To ensure consistency and safety in our dismissal process, we kindly request that all changes to your child's usual dismissal method (bus, car, walker, ASP, or Roar) be communicated directly to the school office. Please call the office on the day of the change before 1:00 pm. Our team will promptly inform your child's teacher and your child of the new plan. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated in keeping our dismissal process smooth and secure. Please note that we can no longer accept text messages or dojo messages to classroom teachers for changes in dismissal. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

In Stephen Covey’s book The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, he highlights one of the

major causes of arguments- poor listening skills. So many arguments are caused when we fail

to practice the habit of “Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood.” If we truly want

to have more peace in our relationships, we will listen to others and try to truly understand

what they are saying and how they feel before we try to get our point across. Usually, if we

take time to listen and understand, we will find out that the people we are arguing with

are more important than the argument. This is a movie clip that demonstrates how better

listening skills can eliminate arguing and lead to more peace in our relationships:
