We made it!
A few notes about the week coming up: I will be out Monday as my oldest son Andrew and I are visiting two colleges in Kansas(yes, I'm driving to Kansas on Sunday and driving back Monday night!). Tuesday is Picture Day - procedures will be sent out later this weekend or Monday. Wednesday - VERY IMPORTANT RtI Faculty meeting either before school or after. Make sure to attend one or make prior arrangments with me. Friday - PTO Luncheon!
I feel like this is a short newsletter this week, but I hope you aren't too devastated! Have a great weekend!
The Band Rocked!
Congrats to Mr. Duplooy, Mr. Mothersole and all the students. You guys have the band sounding awesome already - well done!!
Loved the luncheon
FAC Rocks!
