Winter Break is coming!

Well...
\
...just this week left before break. Lots going on! We had a good trip to the archery range last week. This Friday is a trip with Nick's class to the Food Bank.

Also, academic concern notifications are going out by the end of the week (it is already mid-quarter).

Writing workshop is happening on Mondays, and more lit. circle will be in place for the second half of Q2. Conferences will last this week, and some of the feedback has been more reading and writing...which pleases me!

Watch for snow closures too! It is that time of year - we follow Portland Public Schools on that issue...
And we are coming back from vacation on Monday, January 7th (a little later than usual since we don't start our break until noon on the 21st).

Any questions? Feel free to email: kirk@trilliumcharterschool.org
...and you can check the syllabi below.

What is happening?

Well,

The potluck was a great success. Thank you Valerie and John for hosting (and for the guitar)! There will be a email soon that summarizes the note and the wonderful wish list that was put together. It was a delightful evening that I would love to do again in the spring.

Conferences are underway. If you have not had a chance to sign up, there will be another correspondence about this as well i.e. best times to meet with me and so on.

I will be out on Monday.

Tomorrow, Friday, we will watch a film and have a writing prompt about it. The film is Mozart and the Whale. It goes well with the Circle of Friends curriculum and its themes are important for our community.
Next Friday will be our archery outing (December 14th) and we NEED drivers for this one.
The following Friday (the 21st) is the last day before winter break and we are going to the Food Bank with Nick's class.

Thanks again for being a part of Trillium. I am glad for the opportunity to work with your kids.
