13 Days Left..
We have 13 days left of school. When you do the math, 13 days is 84.5 hours. When you put it that way, it doesn't seem like much. Wow. Remember, those 13 days or 84.5 hours matter.
Also, as you know, we may start to see more behaviors appear. Please remember that these behaviors appear for many reasons- some are "checked out", some are fearful of a summer of no structure, some are fearful they won't get food, some will miss the stable relationship they have with you. Please be aware of this and remember how important relationships are, especially at this time of year. Also, be aware of your level of frustration. Often, we are feeling very similar. Be aware of this as you approach our students.
Moving Meeting- next Wednesday:
Don't forget our "moving meeting" is next Wednesday in Kayla Davis's room. Nikki Karnop from Relocation Services will walk us through the process of moving. Nikki has spent hours getting this move ready - and has done a great job with her plan. If you have questions, please bring them to the meeting.
Congratulations Amanda and Jen:
