April 4 - Have a fun Eclipse....Let's see what fun photos you come up with?!

 

Monday should be fun. Thanks Rita, for getting us all glasses and leading the fun and informative meeting on Wednesday. The kids are stoked to take it in! 

--------------------------------------------

I realize the Snow Day and Eclipse Day are putting a wrinkle or two in the quarter switch and grading timeline. I'm sorry that we do not have release time for grading and that the quarter is ending in a funky way. Hopefully this isn't causing you too much stress. If it is please let me know how we can help. 

---------------------------------------------

Speaking of help.....As we get closer to break and the warmer air seeps in, please help keep your students focused and accountable. This is a particularly challenging and important during FLEXTIME and period 5 & 6. We are seeing a slight increase in wandering and avoidance during flex. Please help focus your advisees during TA sign ups and help to redirect any students whom you notice are not where they are assigned. Thanks....two weeks to go!
