A Note from Leah...
As we continue to build our relationships, with each other and with our students, sometimes we have to lean into the discomfort. It is when we find ourselves leaning that we discover something amazing. We often want to stick within our comfort zone and not venture out into the unknown. I double dog dare you to try something new this weekend or next week. See if something surprises you about yourself. What will happen when you lean into the discomfort and step out of your comfort zone? Be brave and SHINE! You MATTER to me!
Have a great weekend!
Leah
(P.S.) If you have a story to tell after this double dog dare, I would love to hear about the adventure.

PTA Membership
I hope everyone enjoyed the lovely salad lunch from our PTA! If you have not already done so, please remember to join PTA for $8. They have monthly treats already planned for us and many other items to support us throughout the year. It is our goal to be 100% with staff membership.

Technology Outage
Technology recently installed some power supplies for our networking equipment which should prevent our devices from shutting down when the school loses power like during a thunderstorm.
They have scheduled some down time after school on Wednesday, 9/21 between the hours of 2:35-6:00. We have asked for it to be after 3:40pm.
The process should only take around 10-15 minutes and will not affect the entire school, just the portable areas.
