Do you own your schedule? Or does your schedule own you?
My brother sent me this shot of the bridge. The years it took to build it remind me that overnight success takes five years. We are on that path! Keep the focus and goal in mind.
We are just about done with the Homecoming 2015
festivities. I am still impressed by the
attitudes, cooperation and flexibility of staff and students alike. Thank you for allowing me out of the building on Thursday. Special Kudos go to our counselor, who does so much more then just counsel!
Will we be able to review the Peer Mistreatment Handbook with students in Ac Lab next week?

The Motivational Quotes/ posters and flyers will NOT need to

Thanks for the great start to the year. Feel free to share feedback, preferences and ideas on how to continue to grow our students and ourselves, even thinking outside the box. For instance, the 6th graders may even consider something just for the new cohort of current 5th graders!October begins this week! WOW.
