Congrats to Melissa Falkos and the 5th grade team for the wonderful Too Good for Drugs Ceremony they organized and facilitated on Wednesday of this week. Thanks to Dr. Woell for covering for me when I was at my administrator academy and to Angela for all of the awesome pictures.

I enjoyed the Ripple article that Danielle, Angela and Allison put out in there Coaching newsletter on Total Participation Techniques. It is worth your time.
I am very excited that Friday, a former student, Sabrina Echinberger, who now works at CodeHS will be presenting to students in Specials classes about careers in Computer Science. Stop by April's room 1st-5th and 7th period if you want to view part of the presentation. Thanks to April for setting this up. I love it when we can bring former students into the building for a chance to give back to our school.
Article from Sal Khan on the impact of A.I. on Teaching. Has anyone further explored the Khanmigo since it was presented at a learning meeting earlier this year?
Thanks to all my morning and afternoon bus/lot/car duty staff. I appreciate the job you do to make sure our students are dropped off, picked up and supervised safely before and after school.
I am looking forward to the Holiday Bazaar at Evergreen this weekend. Our band and choir will be performing around 10am on Saturday if you want to stop by. I appreciate Ms. Martin, Mr. Lewis and Mrs. Tepe's hard work to get them ready. I was listening outside their doors this week and they sound awesome! There will also be a blood drive that I think is a great way to give back to those in need.
I am also looking forward to the Band and Choir winter concert coming up on Wednesday. Please remember that we will be on a assembly schedule during that day. Here is the schedule that April sent out. Here is the schedule
Congrats to Joe and the wrestling Bengals! That's right Benjamin participated in its first wrestling meet ever yesterday and even came away with some individual victories.
The basketball teams under coach Tylk and Baker played hard leading to some victories yesterday and the Dance and Cheer Team under Mrs. Colburn's tutelage performed two new routines. Way to go Bengals!
Coach Wolski has been working hard with our small but mighty Chess team Thursday evenings leading up to our big tournament we host on Saturday December 14th. We have a LOT of students registered for this tournament and we will be using a lot of classrooms and the rest of the building. Joe Hauser will send an informational email out with more details early next week.
I know we all wish Greg a speedy recovery from his surgery next week! Also please check out his email on STEAM Camp interest. It is a great opportunity that our Benjamin Families love.

I hope everyone will be attending the Holiday breakfast on Friday December 13th. I know it is early but it is a great tradition and it is important for the whole district to get together, share food and laughs and hear some wonderful music from the WCCHS choir.
