Just Some Cool Ideas I Thought I'd Share
A work order is in for the lock at parent pick-up and we will get graphite spray. We are in the process of planning a way to instruct parents to use the crosswalks to keep our Cougars safe in the morning.
Continue reinforcing procedures and the way to do things in your classroom and around the school. You are doing an excellent job and our Cougars have been quiet and organized in the hallways.
Text or email me if you ever want something in the Lowdown.
