Teens and Risky Behaviors
In Health classes currently, we are investigating risk taking and decision making as part of the curriculum.
We do this unit now because Grade 7 students are often starting to get involved in pushing the boundaries and trying different risky behaviors (both positive and negative).
Parents, here is a useful website for all things parenting. The attached link is particularly useful when helping a teenager exert their independence in healthy and safe ways.

What conversations do you have in your house about positive and negative risk taking?
How aware is your child of the influence their peers have over them when it comes to decision making and risk taking?

Service Week
In the last week of school for 2014, Grades 6-8 students were involved in various service activities around TCIS, Techno Valley and greater Daejeon.
Here are some pictures of some of the activities during this last week of school.
Grade 7 students raised a lot of money for Samaritan's Purse. 650,000KRW was raised, with 90% of that coming from Grade 7 students!
We would like to have a blanket and winter jacket drive now. If you have blankets or jackets you no longer use or need , then send them in and we will donate them to people who need them in this cold weather.
The Language and Literature page has also been updated with some information on the up coming unit for Grade 7.
