Weekly Update
Flambeau Junior High
From the Principal's Office
We're about to embark on an exciting adventure here at Flambeau Junior High and High School! Our 7th grade students are going to participate in a 1:1 technology pilot, where each 7th grader will use a MacBook Air to enhance their educational experience. It is our goal to utilize technology, not as a replacement of "traditional" learning methods, but rather as a means to transform what our students are able to do. All 7th grade parents and families are invited to attend one of two informational meetings about the 1:1 initiative. The meetings will be Tuesday, November 11, and Thursday, November 20. Both meetings will start at 6:00 p.m. in the high school IMC.
As always, feel free to call or e-mail with any questions!
Mr. Lathrop
