"Preparing and Educating for Success"
WEEKLY UPDATE 8/24/18
STUDENTS FIRST
We made it to the end of our first full week of school. As we walked around this week it appeared that classes had settled into their routines and things were running smoothly. Thank you again for setting those expectations up front with your students and remaining consistent with them. Remember we have pictures on Monday. They will be set up at 7:00 and everyone needs their picture updated for the website. Good luck tonight to Coach Barrow and the team as they kick off the season. Have a great weekend and see everyone on Monday.
-We will have an alternate bell schedule next Friday for the pep assembly. We will move Seminar to the end of the day. Directly after lunch we will begin 7th hour and then 8th. Each will be 49 minutes and students will be released from 8th hour for the assembly. The bells will ring at the adjusted times that day. Please communicate that with your classes.
-The ICU system is up and ready. We will turn it on Friday the 31st. Make sure to familiarize yourself with it prior to then. An email will be sent to all Freshman parents Friday after school.
-We are still working through the morning bells. Make sure that if you leave your room prior to 7:40 to close your doors so students don't come in your room. We have had some sitting in empty rooms after that first bell. As we work on this process please let us know of any concerns you are seeing.
-Sept 10th is our Active Shooter PD day. It will be from 8-11:30. Lunch will include food trucks in the parking lot or the opportunity to go out on your own. You must be back in the Commons by 12:30 for a speaker that will begin presenting at that time.
-With our new email blasts, you MUST keep gradebooks up to date.
-Students last day to change classes was Wednesday.
-Remember we have a protective film on our exterior windows. Please do not tape things to those windows and doors.
