Week of March 19th

Good Evening!

We are back at it tomorrow! I hope that Spring Break was good to you and that you got an opportunity to rest! We are in our 4th quarter and on the last leg of the race! It is important that we finish strong and that we do not give up! I know that we have endured many changes but please be patient. We can not FAIL! We can not FAIL because others are depending on us to make a difference! The OTHERS are our STUDENTS! Finish the drill!

I have received many request for personal leave. I will not grant any personal leave during Parent/Teacher Conferences, testing, and the last week of school. These are critical times at the school and everyone will need to be present.

I received contracts last Friday! Please see me Tuesday if you did not receive your contract as they are due back soon. 

ELTs will NOT shift until next Monday. This is to allow you more time to post grades. Remember that ELT grades should be an average of both 4 weeks. Please work with each other to ensure that the grades are posted and ELT placements are correct. If you have any questions, please see Mrs. Brinkley.

Parent Teacher Conferences are next week. Please make sure that students are prepared to present to their parents. Also, you will need to make contact with every parent of the students whose conferences you are responsible for hosting. This will need to be recorded in Campus in the PLP section. If parents are in need of transportation, please inform Mrs. Griffith ASAP.

Lastly, thank you for your commitment to the work! There is much to be done but a lot that have been mastered. Our six week review is coming soon. I am looking forward to positive comments about the work that we have been doing. 

Here is to a great week!
