Senior Class Corner by Mr. Maldonado

As ICA Seniors progress through our newly created Seniors Seminar course, which was put together by our staff to better prepare them for their transition to the adult and working worlds, we are seeing our Seniors step up to the challenge of making decisions about their immediate future “after graduation.” The class, “Senior Seminar,” is made up of a combination of  Life and Financial Awareness Skills  that we want our graduates to know prior to them graduating and leaving our school. The primary instructors for the Senior Seminar class will be Mr. Josh Behnke (JBehnke@helendalesd.com) and Mr. R. Maldonado (rmaldonado@helendalesd.com).

Further information will follow in the coming days.

Thomas Monson wisely said “The past is behind, learn from it. The future is ahead, prepare for it. The present is here, live it.”  These truths remind us that our best days are, indeed, ahead of us because they are the only ones that we can change!  Scholars, why not help make someone else’s day a great one by celebrating the Random Acts of Kindness Day, this February 17th.  It doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to help a little old lady cross the street that day.  There are so many different palpable ways to celebrate like taking out the garbage, making your bed, feeding the family pet, washing the dishes, or cooking—without being told to! Even not arguing with your brother or sister would be a kind thing to do.  However you celebrate, I hope that you’re reciprocated with an abundance of kindness right back at you!
