Welcome back from Thanksgiving Break (almost)!
On Monday we will finalize the add/drop process and the new classes for Q2 will be official.
I hope that report cards were received well. We are transitioning to a new format. There is some paper work that obviously needs streamlining, and the information will become clearer and more detailed. If you felt that advising reports were thin...they were! We are also using a new advising report card that will be filled out and gone over during conferences.
Speaking of conferences. They will begin the week of December 3rd and be held over two weeks. I will be scheduling soon, so let me know what times are best for you.
December 3rd is currently our advising class potluck. We are slated to meet at Valerie Day and John Smith's house (Matt's parents) that evening to go over our Trillium experience together. Once again, John Ross and I will "host". Please come! It is very important that we support each other as families and friends.
Also, our Friday (11/30) experience when we return next week will be a health class presented by two guest speakers (nurses) who have helped in classrooms schoolwide this year. The topic is sexual and reproductive health and education. There will be consent forms sent out. If you feel that your student is not ready, let me know. I have been trying to keep our "in house" Fridays centered around three topics: PLP skills, health and wellness, buddies and service.
Thanks! More soon,
Kirk
