Resource of the Week
The resource this week was shared with me by Mr. Williams. The article is a good reminder for all of us about just how different the world is now for our students than it was when most of us were growing up. The latest rapid advances in technology have made the experience vastly different. As schools, we have to adjust our thinking and instruction. The article this week gives some thoughts to this topic.

Pig Races Friday
All pigs and their names should now be on display up in the IMC. This week, we'll have a vote for both students and staff to vote on the "Best Name" and the "Best Dressed" pigs. We will then have an assembly next Friday (3/6) at 2:15 for the pig races, and other events that will showcase student talent (or staff talent if anyone has a talent or entertainment idea...just let me know). More details on the assembly will follow in the week ahead.
Homeroom Lessons for this week should be taught on Thursday and Friday morning this week!!
Parent-Teacher Conferences
Our March Conference session is next week (3/5) from 4:30 to 8:00. The time is now to invite parents in for conferences. Like in the past, we will invite as many parents and students in as possible, while also opening the building for all parents to come in and meet with teachers as needed. This is a great opportunity to show off student work in classrooms and around the building.
3rd Quarter Grades
Just a reminder that grades for 3rd Quarter should be posted in each standard and should be updated at least weekly throughout the remainder of the quarter.
Next Student of the Month Breakfast
Our next breakfast will be on Friday, March 20th. If you haven't had the chance to present yet to honor a couple of students, please let me know, and we'll make sure you get the chance...there are only 2 remaining recognition breakfasts this year. Thanks to the 7th grade team for sending in their nominees already!
Findorff Assembly
Findorff will be putting on an assembly to share with students what the construction areas will look like, and how they should navigate those areas on our campus. The assembly will be on Thursday, March 12th starting at 2:15.
Hoops for a Cause
Mark for calendars for March 12th for our annual Students vs. Staff Basketball game that will raise money for a cause that is important to our students!
