Notes from Dr. Valadez
Another six weeks is in the books! Let's continue to move forward and end the year on a great note. I will be stopping by campuses to observe some of the PD our AF's and CIC's are providing to our teachers.
Don't forget! We have our principal's meeting this Thursday, November 12th @ North Dallas High School. See you promptly at 9:00 p.m.
If you haven't already done so, share this SMORE with your office managers to input campus events on the link below. The link provides your office managers with instructions on how to enter campus events along with the link on where to enter them! Take care of this ASAP!
