Dear CCSD Families,
This week our school community will be focusing on the character strength of Prudence in our Positivity Project Social Emotional Learning curriculum. Prudence means you plan for the future and achieve your goals by making careful everyday choices.
Prudence is the ability to do the right thing for the right reason, at the right time. It’s a future-oriented way of thinking that helps a person set goals, make plans, and have the discipline to accomplish them. It is cognitive -- more a strength of the head than of the heart.
Prudence supports effective individual self-management. Whether aspiring for an athletic record, academic grade, or purchasing a car, foresight and planning are necessary. However, even with a plan, long-term goals can only be obtained by overcoming those impulses and desires that steer you away from your goals. Prudence provides the wisdom to know which character strength to leverage, at which time, to achieve your desired end state.
To practice and encourage the character strength of prudence with your child, please visit the Positivity Project’s P2 for Families (password: P2) where together you can watch a video, read a quote and talk about the answers to three questions. Have a wonderful week!

Our Girls Varsity BB team continues their hot streak! Here are some highlights from last night's game from Coach Hoertkorn:
"The Varsity girls basketball team picked up a league victory over Fort Ann last night with a great team effort right from the start. In our first game back from break the girls were ready to play, and worked together so well with every player contributing.
Emily Dingmon led all scorers with 15 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, and 4 steals. Whitney Cameron followed with 13 points, 4 rebounds, 8 steals, and 5 assists. We have an emphasis on defense and rebounding, and last night Chloe Hall and Sage Shanahan combined for 11 rebounds, and were great on the defensive end. Sage also had 6 points, with a couple of those baskets coming off offensive rebounds. Maddie Baldes was great in transition scoring her 4 points off lay-ups. Isabella Craig and Kenadee Flint have also been great running the floor, and looking for their teammates. Isabella had 9 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals.
I continue to be so proud of how well the girls are playing together, and how unselfish they are as a team. They never hesitate to make that extra pass, or look for each other so the team can be successful. They care more about winning than any individual accolades, and that continues to reflect in each game's outcome. I look forward to the rest of the season! Our next game is Wednesday, at Warrensburg at 6pm."
Congratulations, Riverhawks!

Dear CCSD Families,
Happy New Year! This week our school community will be focusing on the Positivity Project character strength of Optimism. Optimism means you expect the best from the future and work to achieve it.
Optimism represents a state of hopefulness and confidence about the future (both short and long term). People with this strength are future-oriented. They have a positive vision of what the future holds and maintain confidence that they will get there. Despite setbacks, they keep a positive attitude and often find ways to convert what seems like an obstacle into a stepping-stone to achieving their goals.
Optimism is not about wearing rose-colored glasses and rolling over when the going gets tough. It’s about staying focused on the good in any situation -- allowing you to be aware of opportunities and accountable for your emotions. Optimists are strong leaders. They find meaning in hardship and can create a vision for the future. Optimists are inspiring; their example is contagious. And, by sharing and achieving their vision -- despite setbacks -- they help us all achieve more.
To practice and encourage the character strength of optimism with your child, please visit the Positivity Project’s P2 for Families (password: P2), where together you will watch a video, read a quote, and talk about the answers to three questions.
Have a wonderful week! We look forward to welcoming our students and staff back tomorrow, January 2nd!
