September 10 - 'if you see a job, do it'

Good lunch vibes.....and good spacing! 

"If you see a job, do it', is a mantra I often used with my students during my wilderness trip leading days. It was an effective reminder that many hands make lighter work, or at least gets dinner cooked sooner. Not surprisingly, this is a mantra that you all demonstrate on the regular here at PA.  This past week felt like a time that I refer to as the 'Super September Busies' you all stepped it up. Thanks for your patience and cooperation with the many things that are moving fast and moving forward. And, a huge thank you to everyone who stepped in and up to fill in the gaps this week. It was tricky for a few days and your willingness to 'see a job and do it' was awesome. This team effort and 'let's get it done' attitude is part of why we are successful with our students. Thank you!

Updates: 

STAR Testing will begin on Monday, Sept. 13th. This assessment can help forecast which students are on track to perform well on state testing as early as fall—giving you ample time to intervene early and help get all students on track for success. This will be done during flex and Literacy/math classes, so there should not be any interruptions to your classes.
