I will be delivering Gowns and Graduation Yard signs on Tuesday May 12th.  I will have more details closer to the date.  Anyone that wants to help is welcome. 





Thanks for your continued checking in with students and parents.  I have seen teachers not only concerned about missing work but concern about the students welfare and well being. 

Don't forget about this kid.

I hope you guys are able to connect with students and families on Feedback Friday's.  Not only can students reach out to you, but it gives you time to reach out to the students and families you are concerned with.



We had another full slate of meetings yesterday.  thanks to debbie for organizing and facilitating the meetings and to the PST staff sitting in those meetings.  Special shout out to Mark, Lyn and Adrienne for holding out and staying for the entirety of some very long meetings.



Our Evergreen Neighbors completed a car parade yesterday.  Word on the street is the route took over two hours to drive and hit all of the student houses!  Great job Guys!
