Week of September 5, 2016

Events of the Week:
I want to thank you all for a great start to this school year. I am impressed so far and excited on seeing how well you all work together. At different times, you may hear me question why we do certain things the way we do, or pose questions to you about things I see, understand that this is how I process. It does not mean change is coming, but could mean we may adjust a few of our methods so we become more efficient in the future. Remember, we have Open House Tuesday night at 6:30PM, I expect everyone to attend unless you have already spoken with me previously. Also, this Thursday, you will complete our PDPs and your teacher survey for our AdvancED accreditation during your planning periods. This will be a busy semester, so we are trying our best to get out in front of it.
