Team Columbia
Average is OFFICIALLY over!
We Are Almost There....
Team Columbia:
We are in the final stretch of the 2018-2019 school year! I want to thank each of you for all you have done for our students and our school, rather noticed or unnoticed. We could not accomplish all that we have this year without everyone's contributions. I hope you enjoyed Teacher Appreciation Week! Maybe you had to exercise just a little bit more to work off those calories from last week.
If you have not done so, please turn in your exams, they were due on Friday! Please remember, we will operate under the "Tuesday Bell Schedule" all this week, beginning with Monday being a Gold Day to accommodate Senior Exams. See the Bell Schedule below. Please remember, bells will be off to accommodate IB and AP Testing.
If you have not already, please sign up for your One-on-One with the Principal and the Textbook Return.
Have a great week of teaching and learning!!
