Hello Ranchers!!!
First and foremost, thank you for providing me with honest feedback from the survey distributed on Wednesday. I will provide the breakdown of the results to Leadership. Currently, 88 staff have filled out a survey. If you still have not filled out a survey, please see Mr. Miller and place that in my mailbox outside my door as soon as possible.
This is a just a gentle reminder to let the students know we only have 10 days before the break, followed by 3 days after the break before Teacher Made exams start. Work should be turned in and time should be made up.
To-Do’s Before Leaving for Break:
As you prepare to leave for the Winter
Holiday Break, please note the following:
- You can turn off your monitor,
however Do Not turn your computer off.
- Do Not disconnect or move
computers, or their peripherals, VoIP phones.
- Do Not turn off the copiers.
Have your Voicemail and your Out of Office Assistant
in Outlook reflect the Holiday Schedule
