Breakout Staff Meeting
Please click on this link and follow all of the directions to complete this month's staff meeting by THURSDAY, November 7. If everyone participates and enjoys it, we may consider having more breakout and/or flipped staff meetings in the future! Note: the Breakout should take you approximately 15 minutes or less to complete. You may complete it during school hours. You may work with teammates - but each person must submit to the padlet when prompted. HAVE FUN!
