Returning from winter break, students will be discussing what it looks like to set goals during their Guidance class. By setting goals, students can improve their academic performance, increase their motivation to achieve, increase pride and satisfaction in their performance and ultimately improve their self-confidence. When I asked students why people set goals, the majority response I received was "to become a better person." Here at Washington-Caldwell, we will be starting 2014 with a fresh start! Students were asked to set an academic goal as well as a personal goal... Feel free to ask them about their goal setting process!
