I am hearing a lot of positive feedback from kids and parents about our "new" elective classes this year.  Thank you Stephanie, Joe, Brett, Katy, Vanessa, Mallory, Owen, Kirk, and Jill for providing our students these great opportunities this year.  







New Student Monitor

Hannah Laubenthal will be starting on Monday as our new student monitor.  She will be taking over for Carol Bennett who has decided to take a monitor position at Grant.


October 30th Conferences

Here is a link to the October 30th Conference sign up sheet.

Please be sure to set a conference with yourself so you get a break.

I will be sending this out to parents on Monday morning.


November 5th PD Day

Many of you have been asking about this date.  Plans are still in the works, but as of now, it looks like all Middle School teachers will be going to Willoughby Middle School and work with Jack Berckemeyer on teaming.  Our team leads worked with Jack this summer.  He is knowledgeable and entertaining.  I will keep you posted as I hear more.


Last Teacher at Conferences....

Congratulations to Amy Clendenning for receiving the coveted LAST TEACHER STUCK AT CONFERENCES award.  Well done Amy.
