Coffee Cart-Feel Good Friday
Feel Good Friday just keeps getting better! Stephen Baker had the awesome idea to start up a coffee cart for the Warrior Academy kiddos and the FA-3 kiddos to run together on Friday mornings. The cost will be $1.00 per cup, and we have creamers and sweeteners as well!
The funds will just replenish the cart from week to week, but the personal interaction and functional skills the kids are going to learn from this will be invaluable! I am looking forward to watching them grow throughout the year and build relationships with you all through this venture!
I have included the Google Sheet that we will use each week to fill orders. There is a cell for your name, classroom number for 1st period assignments, type of drink, and if you need a disposable cup, or if you'll have your own mug for us to make it in!
Thank you all in advance for your support of this fun idea, and to Baker for getting it all together. I love our big Warrior Tribe!
Thanks again!
Baker and Megan

Warrior ROCKstar!
I'm passing the Warrior rock to Jenny McKlveen. She is a rock star in so many ways. I would bet that everyone at Sevier has, at some point, benefited from her wisdom and leadership -- whether it is advice on classroom management, an idea for curriculum, or responding to an emergency situation. I often overhear students of all grades talking about their favorite teacher, Mrs. Mac. She has a knack for making each one of them feel special. As a friend, colleague, and teacher, she listens to problems, offers suggestions, encourages success, and soothes worries. Jenny is always there when you need her. I was going to say something like "solid as a rock" but I thought that might be corny, and she would hate it! :)
