Hot Topics...
Grading Window....Grading Window open December 18th 8:00 am through Friday December 20th 2:00 pm. Please remember that you MUST check out with Karen prior to leaving the building on Friday to ensure that all grades have posted correctly.
Passes at lunch...are always required for student to leave the lunchroom and visit a teacher's class (as we want to keep the halls clear and protect your lunch time). Please give students a pass if they need to leave the lunchroom as well as if they are leaving your room and will arrive late to the cafeteria. We are having students sign out of the cafeteria as we want to hold students accountable for their whereabouts and also know where to find them if a parent comes to pick them up. Thank you so much for your help with this.
Please continue to check for student IDs...especially period 1, and send students to the office if a sticker is needed.
New IT resources are available for Englewood educators....
