What will this mean for New Tech? Some basic information about a modified block schedule was shared with members of our Site Based Decision Making team and we will have various levels of input to help us with our schedule for next year. CHS is having their parent information meetings on November 9th and 14th at 6:45 in their auditorium. We will have parent and learner feedback sessions over the coming weeks. Please see next week's newsletter for dates. No decision has been made about the New Tech schedule for next year yet and you can be assured that we will be thoughtful, learner-centered, and innovative with our thinking.

Veterans Day Guest Speakers
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Veterans Day is coming up very soon and we would like to provide you with some key information! Veteran speakers will speak at New Tech High @ Coppell on November 9th, 2016, between 1:45-2:30pm. The speakers will be talking about their experience in the military, what Veterans Day means to them, and why it’s such a significant holiday in the United States of America. We invite you to join us for this assembly as well as any veterans who would like to participate in this observance. We will hold a reception at the end of the assembly for our veteran and parent guests. New Tech High @ Coppell hopes to see you there!
