Talladega City Schools Pre-K Program

Hal Henderson is home of the Talladega City Schools Pre-K Program. Mrs. Angela Capers, a "highly qualified" teacher with exceptional talents, developed the program during the 2008-2009 academic year. Mrs. Karen Graves, a "highly qualified" paraprofessional, works collaboratively with the 2010-2011 teacher, Mrs. Patricia Cook, to continously move the program forward. Mrs. Cook was previously our State Department of Education Technical Assistant who evaluated our program. We have 18 students enrolled in Pre-K. I am also pleased to announce that our site has been recognized by the State Department of Education as "exemplary."

"WRITING TO ROCK" IS COMING SOON!

On February 1, 2008, Hal Henderson faculty, staff, and students will meet in the hallway and dance to the CHA-CHA-SLIDE. All students K-6 will "write with purpose" for 45 minutes. Afterwards, they will all be rewarded with a "Rockin" good time.

"YOU CANNOT EFFECTIVELY TREAT ANY MISBEHAVIOR UNTIL YOU KNOW THE REASON FOR IT."
Something to think about....

1. Would you agree that the misbehavior of students is one of the most destructive factors in your professional life?

2. Think of techniques that can be used to determine students' motivation for unacceptable behavior.

3. What stance should educators take when students seem to get satisfaction from being unlikable?

4. Share ways you can work together to solve problems associated with student behavior.

5. What can be done to help students grasp and accept the concept that with power comes responsibility?
