Parking and check-in:
This workshop will take place at the Booth Museum and the Booth Art Academy (just 2 blocks from the main museum). It’s a short, easy walk between the two buildings. **Please park at the Tabernacle Church parking lot on Gilmer Street.
Elementary, Middle, and High school art teachers - please report to the booth according to the schedule. BRING YOUR LUNCH
TEAMS!
For now, I am sending things through email and through TEAMS but I am going to stop sending so many emails starting in January (trying to give you time to adjust) and if you are not looking at TEAMS you will just be missing info.
The point is not to replace email but to drastically decrease the email clutter for simple chat-like communications. Sharing of files is a cinch and all conversations are pervasive. You can open and follow the thread rather than sitting down to 54 emails at the end of the day just because someone replied all. Give it a whirl! I was skeptical but I love it!
Elementary Music - Deadline is NOW
- Number of students so I can send you your music (Sending 1 copy per 2 students)
- Copies of student permission forms sent to me via inner office
- Check for those who have paid cash/check
Fall Back!!
GMEA - Input Requested
Voting is open until Friday, November 1 at midnight!
Deadline Ahead
November 22 Publication
November 22 - Is publication day where it will go LIVE at 4p.m. Columns and Pictures/Videos from your column writer is due to me prior to this publication date - please plan to reach out to them if you have anything to share.
