Progress Reports and Other Thoughts

Can you believe today marks Day #23 of the school year? That's almost 13% of the school year. Recognizing that we are 1/2 way through our first term I wanted to notify everyone that we will be conducting our typical progress report routines this week. Teachers who are concerned about certain students will prepare a progress report and submit the reports to Guidance this Wednesday. We will then collate all the progress reports and mail them home on Friday. We do this knowing that Edline is a valuable tool, but want to ensure an extra step of communication is made in hopes of better serving our students. Feel free to contact your child's teacher and/or school counselor with any questions or concerns you may have.

Onto other news...

1. Congratulations to the 67 students recognized at last Monday's Fall Academic Awards/ Pep Rally. These students achieved the honor roll for each quarter last school year. I thank the entire school community for their spirit and attendance. Also, a big thank you goes out to our guest speakers at the event, Mrs. Erica Walch from the PTSA, our Superintendent Mr. Dardenne, and a big applause for Ms. Serena Willis who provided the keynote speech. Ms. Willis was the 2011 Distinguished Service Award Recipient and truly hit a home run with her presentation. Who else wants to be part of the 212 degrees team? I sure do!

2. Our fall athletic schedule is well underway. The rain sure has put a damper on our teams, but all our student-athletes are performing well. I encourage the community to catch some action. Our students love it when spectators are cheering them on!

3. Next Monday is Columbus Day and thus no school. I wish everyone a safe and enjoyable "long weekend".

Until next time...take care!
