December 2021
QUEST Families,
Happy December! I hope this month finds you filled with lots
to be grateful for, and that this month has been one of low stress and lots of
time together as a family. QUEST has been working hard to provide your child
with an awesome education, and looking back on 2021 we have lots to be proud of
as a school community. School during a pandemic is not easy, but our school
continues to do what we always do…rise up, together!
Better Goals or
Better Systems?
We are about to approach 2022, and I have no doubt that we
will be inundated with reminders to set a resolution, or to create meaningful goals
so that we can be our best selves. In fact, we often reinforce the same message
with our children.
As a school community, the one thing we all have in common
is that we want our students to be successful. More than that we, as the adults
in their world, also want our own success. Sometimes, however, we focus so much
on where we want to go that we can easily forget how powerful it is to improve
the system—or process—that will get us to where we want to be. As we approach 2022,
let’s teach our children how powerful their systems, daily routines, and habits
are.
I’d like to share an article with all of you that speaks
much more eloquently about this topic than I can. Please enjoy by clicking on

I hope you all have a fabulous December break. For those who
celebrate, please enjoy the holidays, and I hope you and your family are able
to find plenty of time to sit down and enjoy the gift of time together. Here’s
to a great 2022!
My best,
Derek Warren
QUEST Principal
