Fourth Quarter

Happy Spring!

The fourth and last quarter begins on April 7th. New schedules will be handed out and we will be off and running.

The project fair went extremely well. Look for one more round of project exhibitions at the end of the year, more literacy (book reading and writing) through advising, and more getting out into the world!
There is outdoor school and the campout coming in May.

We have nurses from Linfield college coming to offer a series of workshops throughout the term on sex education, drug and alcohol awareness, nutrition, and more.

It is also a time when we will look in a concentrated way at how the PLP format has worked for your student and how the project-based style of the school has been successful.

My classes are largely the same with the exception of musical theater which is now back to being one of my more "standard" drama classes (Little Shop of Horrors was sadly not able to get off the ground). There are already plans in the works for next years' production(s)!

Syllabi are forthcoming and I will have due dates, performance events, field trips, campout location and sign-up options, and advising deadlines posted with more regularity as we finish up the year. Thanks!
