Schedule changes
We have made schedule changes in Skyward for all the students that will be moving EPIC periods minus those that will be in intervention and Band or Choir. We currently have them "double booked" in an intervention class for Monday through Wednesday. These same students are still sheduled in their normal Band and Choir class because of first quarter grades. Until that is complete and in historical grades it remain this way. I only anticipate this week.

I looked over the goals that each team created last week. I appreciate your hard work in looking at these numbers and setting goals for our school. This will be incorporated into our school improvement plan. We want to keep these goals in front of us as we continue to plan and problem solve for our students moving forward.
