This Week's News
Dr. Tucker's Visit is Thursday, February 5th at 3:50 in the LMC. I highly encourage you to come and get to know him better and ask questions you may have. Dr. Tucker will provide staff with an opportunity to ask follow-up questions at a building visit meeting that has been scheduled. While these meetings are not mandatory for staff, we encourage you to attend if time allows in your schedule. If the meeting scheduled for your building does not work for your schedule, and you would like to attend one of his meetings, you are invited to attend another building meeting that has been scheduled. To view the complete schedule of Dr. Tucker’s building visits, click here.

Learning Cadre Work
Change in Date for 21st Century/Instructional Best Practices: Due to conferences next month, we will not have cadre on February 12th and have moved it to February 19th.
It mattered to that one...
Great job on the 100's projects, Kindergarten!
Our students LOVE to publish and share their work!
