Add/drop, Friday and more...

This week is the last week (by Thursday the 23rd actually) to add or drop a class for your student. I am still making sure that the right math class is in the mix, and that they have writing in there. I will send a new and final schedule to everyone by the end of the week.

This Friday we are going on an excursion to Powell's Books. This is a great trip! Every student can get something (through the activity fee and my classroom budget). This will be a book they can bring to school and eventually use a project book for class (i.e. book report, essay, reflection paper etc.). We also get to practice being in the world as a respectful group and have a day being surrounded by and talking about literature. I will not use the budget to buy snacks or toys at Powell's, but if you would like to send your child with something extra there is a coffee shop on the premises. I am sorry I cannot extend the money past book buying...

School Paperwork: IF you have not turned in the "home visit" paperwork, we need it. This includes the field trip permission form, activity fee payment ($135), free/reduced lunch application (if necessary), and more. If you did not get these in the mail, they are available ONLINE on our website at www.trilliumcharterschool.org under "home visit packet".

P.S. Thanks to everyone who helped out last Friday on our first service trip. It had some kinks, but with your flexibility it went VERY smoothly and was quite rewarding.
