Happy Monday everyone! Welcome to the first full week of Summer. I would like to say that I hope you all are jetting off to amazing, fabulous vacations. Instead, I will say that I hope you all are safe, healthy, and relaxing.
We will continue to send these out each Monday morning throughout summer containing tips and links for professional development opportunities over summer, supports and resources, and lastly any news concerning the upcoming school year. Have a great week!
Updates for the Week...
There are a couple of meetings this week. We will be on campus every day this week and if you are here and want to attend our staff meeting in person we will be displaying it in either the Library or MU (depending on number of people). Practicing social distancing of course.
- Thank you to all of you who contributed to the 8th grade promotion video. It turned out great. Huge shout out to Megan Gemma for putting it all together!
- Thank you to everyone who helped with the materials turn in. Special thanks to our custodial staff, Rick, Aaron, and Robert for set up, take down and support us during the time.
- HUGE THANK YOU to SHAWNA for literally being here all summer, supporting food services and any other needs on campus over summer. She gave SO much of her time to support our families and students.
