Weekly Coaching Communication
Make it a great day -- every day!
26 - 30 March 2018
Hats off to you!
Here's this past week's amazement:
- Thank you to Mr. Wilson and those students who performed at Extravaganza -- such great performances and entertainment.
- Thank you teachers for your flexibility and generosity to help out each other and problem solve in the absence of Mr. Libolt.
- Congratulations Laura (& Jake) Dierks on the arrival of their second daughter, Mara; Addison is a proud big sister.
- Special shout out to Cassie and Randy for helping Laura's sub get acclimated to his long-term position.
- And another special shout out to Cassie and Laura for organizing the Staff vs Student basketball game -- thank you to all who participated.
- Thank you Debbie for taking a group to the FBLA conference and competition -- you represented CPU well and held our students to a high standard.
- Thank you Cathy H. and Beth for advocating for seeing the need and advocating for our students and staff to have a STORM lunch instead of a homeroom this week.
- SBL Council members -- Rob, KC, Laura, Cathy H. & Mike -- thank you for your data analysis, planning and insightful conversations these past two weeks.
- Thank you Jane for taking our Children's Theater Troupe to entertain in Cedar Rapids -- a fun experience for all!
- Shout out to Cathy H. for acknowledging her creative writing students in the announcements -- no names were offered, but I bet those students were beaming in their seats!
- Thank you Mike and Philip for offering such a variety of PE courses -- students are excited about exercise, and the lifting class made HUGE gains in their fitness with an average of 92 pounds per student - -that's moving some muscles, now!
- If you see an associate or have one in your room, please make sure to thank them for all they do -- often times, these staff members are last to know and have little say in what they do, but without them, our students and teachers would not be as successful.
- . . . and finally, a special shout out to all of you who are holding students accountable, grading assessments, and prepping for the final quarter of the school year -- Teachers, you are the reason our students want to come to school; you are the reason that our students are successful people; you are the reason this high school has the reputation of greatness that it does. Keep making it great!
