Staff:
This week will be a busy week as many things are happening. Please be sure to meet the deadlines for submission of Progress Reporting grades and meeting District mandated trainings. All this information can be found below. Thanks for staying up-to-date with everything as I know we all can get caught up in many items. I also want to thank everyone for getting involved in the Educational Thoughts – Building Collaboration. I will share out what we collected last week. So good to hear so many voices talking about building relationships with students. Be sure to answer this week’s Educational Thought as well – Thanks and keep up the great work.
Wishing everyone a great week with your students!
