ACT Study Seminars: The last push until testing!
Team Columbia:
We will begin our ACT Study Seminars this week. Please refer to the email that detailed the displaced classrooms. Please continue to go over those skills and concepts in your classes. This is our last push for our 10th Grade students.
The Choral Assessment will be hosted at Columbia on Monday and Tuesday. The Band, Choir rooms and the auditorium will be off limits to school traffic.
Remember, we will have an emergency faculty meeting at 7:30 to discuss the protocol to deal with our students who may be grief stricken. As you may know, a Columbia student was shot and is currently in ICU in critical condition.
Enjoy this week of teaching and learning!!!
