The Meeks Messenger
1st Edition, Vol. 29, April 18, 2019
From the desk of Lauren, Maggie and Marianne
Maggie, Marianne, and I are working very hard on teacher assignments for the 2019-2020 school year. We have been able to tell some teachers about their placements, but unfortunately, we are still working on a couple of grade levels. We should have things solidified by next week, so hang with us for just a bit longer.
Please make sure to mark your calendars for grade placement meetings. You can find the dates below. We need all teachers to be available on your assigned date. If you have a conflict, please reach out to an administrator.
As I've visited classrooms this week, I've reflected on how blessed I am to be a part of such an amazing place. The dedication and leadership I see in each of you is so inspiring. You truly make a difference in our students' lives each and every day. Thank you so much for all you do for our sweet sweet kiddos. :)
Have a great weekend!
Lauren, Maggie, and Marianne
