PSAT Testing
Greetings Raider Nation,
I apologize for being brief this week as I, along with Adrienne, Sam, Lisa, Thomas, and Mike, are recuperating today from the long day yesterday. Moreover, we have a staff meeting tomorrow where more items will be shared.
What a great Homecoming! Nothing makes me happier than being to write that we had NO incidents to report. The success of our homecoming is attributed to an awesome collaborative effort of the entire Atholton community. At the risk of missing someone to thank, I want to offer my sincere gratitude to all the members of our community who made the festivities such a success -- the awesome staff volunteers. Without you, it would be difficult to get things done. Be sure to get your stamps on your RAID Bingo cards (smile!). A special thank you to Thomas Stuppy, Mike Senisi, and Eric Posner. Their work behind the scenes made everything possible -- you guys ROCK!!
This Wednesday is PSAT day. Just a reminder that those classrooms being used for testing MUST be prepared according to guidelines shared during PIP. Please see Lisa Veslany if you have any questions regarding your classroom preparation.
We are designating Wednesday as College Spirit Day. We are asking staff and students to wear their favorite college gear. For staff, it could be your alma mater, your child’s school, or just your fan favorite college or university. We are setting the tone for Wednesday -- show your support.
Many of you have inquired about the expectations for Friday. Below you will find a document that provides the guidelines for the entire year for ALL STAFF. Friday is considered a Telework Day for those who qualify. Let me know if you have any questions.
Tomorrow is our Staff Meeting in the Media Center. It will revolve around school improvement.
Reminders:
- Memberships -- PTSA and Social Committee -- please join!!
See you tomorrow!
Robert
