Happy Friday!
It was another great week at Christ the King Catholic School!
It was great to see everyone in their blue and gold today. In other uniform news, students can wear shorts again. Our middle school students will complete ISTEP early next week and our 3rd -5th graders will start up on Wednesday. The weather appears to be catching up with the season, which means our school garden will soon be installed. I will provide a date and details in next week's Tiger News.
Have a great weekend. I hope you are able to spend lots of time with your family! Go Pacers!!
Peace,
Ed Seib
Principal

fill out the card online;
it does speed up all of the processing, and we thank you in advance for filling out the card online.

Mindset Minute - Worthy of a Second Look
|
|
Whether you are a Pacer fan or not, I bet you have heard of Victor Oladipo this year. He is a great example of what having a
Growth Mindset
can accomplish. He was not a sought after high school recruit. He ended up attending Indiana University. He improved each year, and by the end of his junior year, he was the National Player of the Year and was drafted 2nd in NBA Draft. His growth did not stop there. During his short time in the NBA, he has been traded twice, which could be viewed as teams giving up on him. However, in his first year with the Pacers, he has become an NBA All Star and a favorite for the Most Improved Player Award. His work ethic and belief that he can constantly improve has helped him to the success he has had this year and inspired his teammates to follow his lead. Instead of basking in his success, he continues to work at getting better. One example of this is that late in the season, he was practicing free throws after a game when everyone else had headed to the locker room. He is a great role model for our students.
For more information about him, check out this recent article in The Criterion.
