Serve up conversation at family meals
It may not be easy to get your family together for a meal, but research shows it's worth the effort. Mealtime conversation can improve your child's vocabulary and academic performance, and strengthen bonds with you. Strive to eat at least one meal as a family each day. Turn off distracting devices and talk about everyone's day. Address your child directly and encourage participation in the conversation.

En las comidas familiares, sirva una buena conversación
Puede que no sea nada fácil reunir a toda su familia para comer juntos, pero los estudios revelan que vale la pena el esfuerzo. Las conversaciones que se dan durante las comidas pueden enriquecer el vocabulario y el rendimiento académico de su hijo, y además estrechar el vínculo entre ustedes. Traten de comer en familia por lo menos una comida al día. Apaguen los dispositivos que son fuente de distracción, y hablen del día de cada uno. Háblele directamente a su hijo y fomente su participación en la conversación.

Alert: A power outage is affecting the district office in Pahrump. Because out this, no schools have internet, and most phone systems are affected.
The schools have power, so instruction continues, and the school schedules are proceeding normally.
Because of the AT&T outage, many of our employees cannot use Dojo to communicate to families, so please be patient.

We would like to thank each and every one of you for the hard work and dedication you bring to the Nye County School District! It takes a village and we are happy you are here to help students learn, grow, and succeed every day.
Lleve un registro para ver adónde se va su tiempo
El tiempo es un recurso valioso. ¿Está su familia aprovechándolo al máximo? Para averiguarlo, dígales a los miembros familiares que lleven un registro del tiempo durante una semana. Cada media hora, todos deberían registran cómo pasaron su tiempo. Esto les dará una imagen clara de adónde se va el tiempo de cada uno. Cuando lo sepan, podrán tomar decisiones según lo que sea mejor para usted, su joven y su familia.

Use a log to see where all your time goes
Time is a precious resource. Is your family making the most of it? To find out, set aside one week to have family members keep a time log. Every half hour, everyone should record how they spent their time. The time log will give you a clear picture of where each person's time is going. When you know that, you can make choices that are best for you, your teen and your family.

Use expectativas para mostrarle el camino a su joven
Establecer expectativas es como darle un mapa de ruta a su joven. Sin ellas, no hay garantía de que llegará al destino final. Sin ellas, no podrá encontrar su camino. Para asegurarse de que el mapa sea claro, ayude a su joven a trazarse metas educativas y determinar cómo alcanzarlas. Dígale a su joven que cree rutinas para el trabajo escolar, y haga hincapié en la relación entre el esfuerzo y los resultados. Hablar regularmente sobre la escuela también le muestra a su joven que usted espera que la tome con seriedad.

Use expectations to show your teen the way
Setting expectations is like giving your teen a road map. Without them, there's no guarantee your student will end up at the final destination. With them, your teen will be able to find the way. To make sure your map is clear, help your teen set education goals and figure out how to meet them. Have your teen create routines for schoolwork, and discuss the link between effort and outcome. Talking regularly about school also shows that you expect your student to take it seriously.

Reinforce the importance of learning from mistakes
It took Thomas Edison hundreds of tries before he found the right material for the filament of the light bulb. But each failure taught him what wouldn't work, and brought him closer to understanding what would. When your teen makes a mistake, brainstorm together about what can be learned from it. What other approaches could your teen try next time? Experience is a good teacher, but students sometimes need help paying attention to the lesson.

Refuerce la importancia de aprender de los errores
Thomas Edison realizó cientos de intentos hasta encontrar el material correcto para hacer el filamento de una bombilla de luz. Pero cada fracaso le enseñó lo que no funcionaba, y lo ayudó a comprender mejor lo que sí funcionaría. Cuando su joven cometa un error, piensen juntos en lo que puede aprender de él. ¿Qué otros enfoques podría probar su joven la próxima vez? La experiencia es una gran maestra, pero los estudiantes a veces necesitan ayuda para prestar atención a la lección.
