Important DocumentsHelping Your Child Succeed in SchoolFor children to be successful in school, parents must be actively engaged in their children's learning. Many studies show that parents' involvement in school is more important to their children's academic success than the parents' level of education or income. By showing interest in their children's education, parents can spark their children's enthusiasm, showing them that learning, both inside and outside of school, is enjoyable and rewarding. Parents can help children succeed by participating in school or other learning activities, reading with their children, assisting with homework assignments, and talking with their children's teachers. As a parent, you have a special interest in your child's education.

Words of Wisdom
Did you know that American President Woodrow Wilson was such a slow learner that he couldn’t read until he was nine years old? That’s right. Even though he couldn’t read until he was nine years old, Woodrow Wilson grew up to be President of the United States. Are you slow at learning something? Well, don’t give up! Keep at it! Remember Woodrow Wilson, and then remember these words. They come from the famous story “The Tortoise and the Hare.” Sometimes … Slow and steady wins the race. Today, if you are having a hard time learning something, put one foot in front of the other, and slowly but surely you’ll figure things out. With something to think about, make it a great day … or not. The choice is yours.

Dayton School challenges our students to become independent thinkers, responsible citizens, and lifelong learners, by providing an interactive and mutually respectful learning environment. The Dayton staff works toward bettering our understanding of how our behaviors and practices are linked to our expectations of student achievement. We acknowledge that having conversations about equity and the achievement gap are uncomfortable, yet through these discussions we further build our skills and strategies in teaching all students within our diverse student body. We understand that moments of discomfort may also be moments for great learning. We use multiple data sets to create new tools and improve old ones, while continually remaining flexible. Dayton School remains focused on our students and the community we serve.
