Off and Running!

Hello!

It has been a long time since my last post, but it has been full of excitement and intrigue.  The year is off and running and so far it has been a very positive start.  Our sports programs have been kicked off to a good start and the roles in the play "Where Were You When The Tardy Bell Rang?"  Today we will be having a pep rally to support all of these programs during our Eagle's Nest time.

What is Eagle's Nest time you ask?  Eagle's Nest is similar to a homeroom concept but is also an academic remediation period between our sixth and seventh period classes.  This allows for a thirty minute window for students to seek the help that they may need from our teachers.  This time also allows for character building and to further the goals of Rachel's Challenge.

I want to continue to praise the students, staff, and community on the warm reception and great start to the school year.  I want to reiterate that my door is always open and I would love to talk to all.

Have a great weekend and Go Eagles!
