Preparedness Intervention Plan


"The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting to get different results."
   -- Unknown

Preparedness matters!

Adults who stumble through life from job to job, meeting to meeting, and from life event to life event without being prepared end up in a state of perpetual chaos and frustration.  It's dysfunctional and demonstrates a lack of professionalism.

But at the same time, we all make mistakes.  Many students are at different cognitive stages of developing their own ability to plan ahead and act independently.

In an effort to help students develop this necessary life skill and to be prepared for high school, students who have experienced a pattern of problems with being prepared may optionally create their own Self-Designed Preparedness Intervention Support Plan.

This form may be filled out and signed by a parent or guardian, resulting in extra credit for any student who struggles with being prepared for class.

The extra credit will not fully replace the deduction from their preparedness grade, but, if acted upon, this plan should stem future losses.

Remember:  the plan only works if you use it!
