Happy Veteran's Day
Hello Raider Nation,
I am at a NASSP Board meeting today thru Tuesday in Washington. Tomorrow is Veteran’s Day. This is a day where we take time to reflect and respect our brave men and women for what they have done for our nation in times of peace and in times of war. From the Army to the Air Force, the Navy and Marines, and to those in other service areas as well, we have these courageous people who renounce their own safety for the protection of our freedom and let us live in peace. Please be sure to recognize and thank a veteran today! The Principal’s Advisory Committee (PAC) dedicated a part of their Sunday afternoon to come in and decorate the doors of our teachers who served. Thank you to: Shawn Douglas, Scott Rager, Juan Gordiano, Marian Johnson, William Reinhart, and Neil Steen.
Report cards will be distributed tomorrow during third period. More importantly, the window to schedule parent conferences opens tomorrow (county-wide!). You should have already input your schedule for conferences. Please let your assigned administrator know if you need or would like support during one or several of your conferences.
Tomorrow is our staff meeting. It will be brief. I recognize that we had a PIP last week therefore there is only a brief presentation from our Pupil Personnel Worker, Donna Blackwell scheduled. It is a mandatory presentation for all HCPSS staff — you will be required to sign-in.
Congratulations to Krista Bopst for winning RAIDer Bingo! Krista — enjoy the parking space starting tomorrow. I am apologizing in advance if I park in someone’s space :-). As Emily Dalton shared, don’t give up, there is still an invitation to a staff luncheon up for grabs!
Have a great week!
Robert
