 Looking forward to the theater club production of Mary Poppins today and Saturday.  Congratulations to  Melissa, Danielle and April for all of their hard work to make this happen. Working hard on  Direction, choreography, sets and props not to mention engaging and motivating middle school students result in an excellent end product.

Thanks to Tim, Frank and Isidro for their  help and assistance in getting the gym ready and all of the help with sound and lighting.

Thanks also goes out to Bill and Joe for all of their help with the sets, Night Vision and muscles come in handy to get the scene changes done correctly and quickly!

10,000 hours ...I mean 20 hours to learn a new skill.  See below:

Jen H and Jessica did a great job organizing the bake sale fundraiser. Selling yummy treats to students while making money for charity is a double victory. 

 

I appreciated the honest conversations I had with the ELA team during the subject area meetings on Wednesday.  

Classroom Management focused on boundaries instead of rules.

Thanks to Josh K for continuing to do a wonderful job with our Maker Space Kiddos!

Of all the money that e'er I spent
I've spent it in good company
And all the harm that ever I did
Alas it was to none but me
And all I've done for want of wit
To memory now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all

Oh, all the comrades that e'er I had
They're sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e'er I had
They'd wish me one more day to stay
But since it falls unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I'll gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be with you all

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
