Back to School Update

Hello Everyone!

Well, the first two days have come and gone!  As always, it's a crazy few days as we work out the kinks of a new school year.

Mrs. Taylor is working tirelessly to get IDs processed and new students accounts set up.  If your ordered or new ID doesn't show up as expected, please be patient.  Modified and Work-Study IDs--same thing, patience!  They are being made and delivered as fast as humanly possible.  New students, please know our computer and gmail accounts are created and managed by an outside IT company.  We've been informed it will be AT LEAST Thursday morning before any new accounts will work.  Please let your teachers know they can call us to verify this fact.

You may have noticed Mr. Winters is missing from the LMC.  He is covering the Homework Help Center while Mr. Brown is on paternity leave.  We expect him back early October, but in the meantime you can find him in D...something.  I can't remember at the moment!

Ms. DelGado is joining us this year.  She will be working with classes as requested by teachers on skills such as APA and MLA formatting.  Please say hello and welcome her to our family.  

Mrs. Treacy is working on updating the sign-in rosters for the new year.  Remember to sign in with your full name until the rosters are printed.  

Mrs. Lynch and I look forward to an awesome school year.  We will be focusing on Google integration, utilizing our database subscriptions, and of course, sharing our love of books!  I am so very happy to say two of my faves were checked out today!

I will continue to review new books here once the school year routine gets settled.  I'm happy to announce I completed the EdTech Team Teacher Leader cohort, earning As in 6 graduate courses over 12 weeks!  It was not easy, and I am super proud of myself.  

Summer reading forms are due by 9/9.
