Now, I am focusing on the children. What kind of students I would like them to be. Three key points are core to \u201cKnowledge\u201d, \u201cMorals\u201d and \u201cHealth\u201d. All three are very important. I would like to make a special focus on the second item \u201caccept each other\u201d. Students can speak their thoughts and being accepted by others will create comfortable classes, and that will create one step closer to higher academic skills. If we all keep this core point in our mind and support our teachers to help our students.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Undo-Kai Around the Corner<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-4709\" src=\"https:\/\/jlsp.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/\uff11-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"139\" height=\"115\" data-id=\"4709\" \/><\/p>\n<p>May 26th 2018 is the day of Undo-Kai. I see a lot of preparations are ongoing, and Students are also practicing. I hear many cheers from the field. Gradually getting excited overall and I also feel butterfly in my stomach. Many parents are assigned for responsibilities, which makes me think that Undo-kai has taken root at JLSP. I hope all the students, from Kindergartener to adult class students, will enjoy, make lots of memories, and grow bonds with friends. Keep hydrated, stay healthy, and safe since it is expected to be warm day.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Attention<\/h2>\n<p><b> Be Careful &#8211; Bees and other insects and small animals<\/b><br \/>\nThere were some reports that bees are getting active around the elementary school building.
