We thank our English Department for their "Tips from the Trailblazers" at the end of Day 1 on Monday to share some of their experiences. We also continued to host our weekly "Chromebook Exchanges" with students on Wednesdays, from 9-11 a.m. and are in the process of having our PE lockers emptied out with contents put in bags for individual student pick up beginning this week.

On Friday, teachers were made aware of the Student Engagement Tool overview. ETS is aware of an issue within I.C. of the special calendar days that were still programmed for SBAC testing preventing teachers from entering the correct information. Hopefully this is already corrected / will be by Monday.
Thank you AP teachers and Asst. Principal Carrie Gaeir for your continued involvement and dedication to our AP students! The exams ARE happening in an abbreviated fashion and you can check out our schedule:
