📝 Parent Tip of the Week: Keep a Simple Routine

One of the best parts of DK12 is the flexibility, but having a basic routine can still go a long way. A consistent start time and some light structure throughout the day—like lesson time, breaks, and hands-on activities—can help your student stay on track.

Even during Spring Break, a little rhythm to the day (like morning reading or outdoor learning) can keep things calm and focused without feeling like school. Simple structure can make a big difference.

March brings fresh opportunities to dive deeper into real-world learning! This week’s curriculum is packed with seasonal science, problem-solving math, and historical connections that help students think critically and apply their knowledge.
