Message from the Principal...

It seems like the older I get the faster the school years go! Not sure if that is because theworld is changing and accelerating as we speak, or if I am just getting old. Probably thesecond, but I am going with the rapid world changes, primarily because I have seen one ofthe more harmful effects of a changing world. And with this thought in mind, I have oneword I want to share with everyone this month. Sleep. More specifically, are your childrengetting enough sleep? There is an amazing amount of research which talks about the lackof sleep our young adults are getting each night. So much so that I thought I wouldsummarize the information for you, just to make it easy:

Behavior which we dismiss as "teenage angst" i.e. moodiness, impulsive behavior,carelessness, sleeping during the day, could actually be symptoms of chronic andsevere sleep deprivation.We know there are radical changes occurring in adolescence, including hormonalshifts and brain development. These changes need a rested body in order toadvance at a healthy rate.Lack of sleep has also been directly related to the ability to exercise self-control overone's emotions, impulses and mood.According to a 2010 large-scale study published in The Journal of AdolescentHealth, a scant 8% of US high school students get the recommended amount ofsleep. Some 23% get six hours of sleep on an average school night and 10% getonly 5 hours.Adolescents who are suffering from sleep deprivation can exhibit many of the samesymptoms as having ADHD, including an inability to stay on task or focused. Thiscan lead to a misdiagnosis.Research by Carskadon, et al. shows that sleep-deprived teens are far more likelyto use stimulants like caffeine and nicotine to get through the day. They also can beat risk of self-medicating with alcohol to deal with sleep-related negative moods.Additionally, teens are also more likely to engage in unprotected sex and recklessdriving than their peers who get upwards of seven hours of sleep a night. This isbelieved to be because they lack impulse control and suffer from impaired judgmentthat leads to poor decision-making.

I could go on, how sleep deprivation causes; depression, suppresses the immunesystem, can trigger certain types of mental illness, and can even result in suicidal ideation.Instead, I recommend you all do a little of your own research, see for yourself, theinformation is easy to come by.

I would like to encourage everyone to consider sleep as a New Year's resolution. Parents,model getting enough sleep (you will thank me for this in the morning) and make sure yourstudent is also getting enough sleep. From what I have learned, the recommended optimalamount of sleep that an adolescent should get is seven (minimal) to nine hours a night.This will likely mean that you need to make sure they are turning off devices one hour priorto bed time and this will likely be a battle. I know this. It may not be easy. But the only waywe can truly give our students a fighting chance to keep up with this world is to make surethey are well rested! If you would like more information, a good source to start with is theChild Mind Institute, at Childmind.org

Finally, I would like to invite all parents to join me at the RIVERVIEW EDUCATIONFOUNDATION 2019 Evening for Education Dinner Auction. This year's event is on

District Survey

The Riverview School District recognizes and values the voices and perspectives of our school community. In order forus to continue to improve as a school district and in each of our schools, it is important for us to know how our students,staff, and parents/guardians regard the job we are doing in providing a quality education for all of our children. Feedbackis crucial for us to know what our community considers our strengths and our opportunities for growth. In January, we will be asking for feedback from our students, staff and parents/guardians. The survey was developedby the Center for Educational Effectiveness, a Bellevue, WA based research firm. Students (grades 4-12) and staff willcomplete the survey at school and the parent/guardian survey will come electronically. The parent/guardian survey willtake approximately 10 minutes to complete. The information you provide will help us in our district and schoolimprovement processes. We would greatly appreciate your input on this survey. Thanks!
