Friday Organization Station- September 22nd
Teachers: Do you have students that have a backpack FULL of treasure? Or what about those students who are not able to find a given assignment? AVID 7th and 8th graders want to help.
We will host our first Friday Organization Station on Sept. 22 during Wolf Time. Please include any student you think may benefit from a complete backpack/binder overhaul. They will report to A3 during WT, and AVID students will be here to assist in a “binder/backpack makeover.”
We will start out with 20 students for our first run, and see how things go!
