Thank you.
From ESL
The ESL department has created a Google classroom to facilitate communication. Strategies, resources, and information about forms will be posted there. One of our campus goals is to increase student performance on TELPAS and strategies to support this goal are also posted there. The code is 1z2svw.
Textbooks
Dr. Lyons will be sending out numbers so that department heads know our official counts.
After the Thanksgiving break, Ms. Gow will send out the link to the Not Clear List so that you can add anyone not clear this semester.
Thank you!
Schedule Change Procedures for Next Semester
Level changes and teacher changes will begin only after the third week of the semester. If you would like a level change or a teacher change you must follow these steps:
- Step 1: Contact your counselor to make them aware of your desire to change your schedule.
- Step 2: Arrange a meeting with your teacher, parent, and yourself to discuss solutions for you to be successful in your current class.
- Step 3: There will be a two week wait period to determine whether the solutions discussed in the meeting have been effective.
- Step 4: If you are still wanting a schedule change after the two week wait period, contact Coryn Prince, Associate Principal for Curriculum and Instruction, for approval.
No schedule changes will be made after the 3rd nine weeks.
Start preparing for the Faculty Holiday Luncheon!
PTSA will be providing lunch for our annual Staff Holiday Luncheon, and many booster clubs are providing prizes. There will be lots to give away.
In addition, we will have a contest each lunch for best holiday outfit and also pick best team outfit overall. We encourage tacky holiday sweaters, at the very least. Below are some inspiring images to get your creativity flowing.
