Well...
Home visits are underway and the start of the year is rushing upon us. Look to this site for syllabi and due dates, class announcements and more. The new wikispace will help speed up communication and simplify access to classes. I will post weekly.
Looking forward to a great year . Welcome back!

Welcome New and Old Advising Families
Summer is here! Grades are being finished up...new class lists are distributed and you will all receive a welcome letter from me very soon.
Next fall will be exciting. We will have a potluck for the middle school at the end of August, home visits in the first week of September, and start up again on September 8th.
We have a new team: Nina, Amy, Kurt and myself. We will also usher in a new class/project rotation in advising, but the schedule will for the most part stay the same (other than going to semesters for the classes).
I had a wonderful year, and I am looking forward to a refreshing break and an amazing 2008-2009 school year; the "golden age" of Trillium.

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!
