As we go forth to this two week break there should be time for reflection and planning. It is a good time to look back on one's school year so far. Consider what has worked for you or your child and what has not and plan accordingly into the new year. It is also a good time to plan for the future. All students and parents (if you have received access codes from the guidance office) have access to signing up for classes for next year. Take a look at the Walton website for registration information. And please contact your guidance counselor if you have any questions about the registration process.
Though all of the above is true, let's be honest: most of us are looking forward to sleeping in, eating good food, seeing family etc. So here is a Top Ten List of reasons that the winter break is good.
