JHS Staff and Department Meeting Schedule for 2015-2016
THE CAT EYE Twitter and Instagram accounts are up and running as of September 8, 2015 to serve as platforms for increased communication between stakeholders in our educational community. We develop many positive activities and events throughout the course of the year, and THE CAT EYE is dedicated to celebrate the many successes of our staff and students with our community. It is time for us to get our voices and our stories out there in a clear and positive way.
What can you as a staff member/administrator do?
When you develop a post, please tag THE CAT EYE by typing "@TheCatEye" and use the hashtags "#EyeOnThePride". When we see your posts we will share/retweet/favorite the posts. Please feel free to do the same to any THE CAT EYE posts that you find positive and informative! The more shares/favorites/retweets, the more our positive stories spread through the community via social media!
If you are not comfortable using social media, please send your story and pictures to us at thecateye@prsdnj.org and we will post it for you.
Feel free to spread the word whenever you are inspired by the many positive, creative, and educational moments that happen here at Pinelands on a daily basis. Remember, we have the power to tell our story and we need to share the wonderful accomplishments of our students and co-workers with our school community!
