Real Colors

      Real Colors is recent program implemented at Chadron High School. The program uses peoples' personality traits to place them into four groups based on like characteristics. 

      Loni Watson, the school counselor, recently decided to get parents involved in this program. This took place on January 8th, from 6-8 p.m., in the high school library. Around 30 parents attended and they participated in ice breakers, a Real Color survey, discussion, and a fun group activity. Mrs. Watson decided to get parents involved in this program because, "Parenting is tough, especially when your kiddo has a very different temperament than your own. Finding ways to help kids through stress, and help motivate them are essential to parents."

      Mrs. Watson was drawn to this specific program because it is a lot of fun and laughs. She also likes that is focused less on surveys and more on fun activities. Mrs. Watson also liked that Real Colors can be used to teach people to better communicate with each other, and better understand themselves.
