The Wolf Howl
Week of 11/8/15
Veteran's Day Ceremony
Teachers and coaches, please sit with your classes in the stands so that we can ensure our Wolves' best behavior. A big thanks to Pat for organizing this day for us!
Increasing our Campus Security and Awareness
A. Keep walking - not my class, not my business.
B. Go into the classroom and check it out. Shoo the kids out and lock the door (if possible).
C. Call the office and report it.
D. Run really quickly so the students don't see you.
The correct answer is B!! Keeping our building secure and our students from loitering inside after hours is ALL of our business. Please help by locking your door, making sure the gyms and common areas are clear of students, and reporting groups of students lingering in the building. Together we can keep our Wolves safe!

Wolf Howls!
Nikki gives a screaming howl to Nate, Rachel, Brooke, & Destiny for all of their hard work this volleyball season. It has been a very busy week as they finish out the Vball season and prepare for the Cross Country & basketball season. They always go above and beyond what they are expected to do without ever complaining. Nikki feels so lucky to get to work with such an awesome team of coaches!
Lisa D. howls for Beth, Amber, Lyndee, Elizabeth, and Sherri for a fun and enjoyable PLC talking about the article and laughing in general!
Terry Popp gives huge Howl to Klocke! Thanks for coordinating a great visit to TWU for the 8th grade AVID students!
Kate B. howls for Callie for the UNT opportunity for our Acapella girls. She has done amazing things with our choir program and Kate is so proud of her!
Megan howls for our fabulous AP's for all they do on our campus - much of which is behind the scenes and unknown!
Lisa D. howls for Terry Popp for planning a wonderful AVID conference and visit! All the guests were so impressed!
Megan howls for Chris Hrenko for stepping in whenever needed!
Kate gives a Big Howl to Chris Keith for always cleaning up the SAC in the morning and moving tables and chairs to help Maria.
Lisa D. Howls for Jamie, Trish, Kris, and all of our coaches for gathering students and athletes late Thursday afternoon and keeping them safe in shelter during the tornado warning! You are awesome for keeping our Wolves safe!
Raquel gives a Thankful HOWL to Ms Pauley for loving, supporting and appreciating every effort of our students.
Lisa D. Howls for Amy Keith for setting up great work stations for her students! Effective and engaging!
Nikki howls for Shevonia for covering part of Caroline's wolf time class for her when she got the dreaded call from the nurse at Glenhope that her son hurt his arm again at school. Shevonia was so nice to cover for her so that she could go check on him! (Thankfully no more broken bones!)
