COUNSELOR’S CORNER – MARCH 
It’s hard to believe we’ve already celebrated our 100th Day of School! This milestone is a wonderful reminder of how much our students have grown academically, socially, and emotionally. With fewer than 80 days remaining, this is the perfect time to refocus, rebuild routines, and strengthen academic confidence at home.

As spring approaches, schedules can feel busy and exciting. Consistent routines help students feel focused. Help your student choose small, manageable goals for the rest of the school year:

•  Read 15-20 minutes each night
•  Practice math facts 3-4 times per week
• Turn in assignments on time
• Stay organized with homework folders and daily schedules

Healthy routines at home play an important role in academic confidence. Limiting screen time on school nights—especially before bed—helps improve attention, mood, and readiness to learn. Creating space for reading, conversation, or quiet play instead of extra screen time can positively impact school performance.

We are so thankful for our amazing students and families and truly appreciate the continued support we receive—let’s finish this year strong!

If you have questions, please contact your student’s teacher or reach out to me at (707) 277-6050 or tperkins@kvusd.org.

Thank you!
