The One About S.M.A.R.T. Goals and the Growth Mindset

Children live for today. Sometimes it can be challenging to encourage our children to think beyond the moment and set their sights on the bigger picture. S.M.A.R.T. goals are specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound. A Growth Mindset is one that believes ability is not set in stone and can be changed with hard work. This week we welcomed Katrina Mabry-Smith, AVID District Coordinator for Mansfield ISD.  Katrina shared tips for parents to help children set and reach goals and develop a Growth Mindset.
