Great experience for our Tech. Ed. students this week as an NTC instructor introduced and discussed the Gas Utility Technical Diplomas with our students!
Announcements/Week Ahead
Scheduling Update - I know for many scheduling time can be a concerning process regarding which class is running and which one isn't. I want to be clear that it is our intention to be as transparent with faculty as possible. We plan to get initial numbers out to Department Chairs and Coordinators by the end of this week. Following that notification, we will schedule a time to meet with Chairs/Coordinators to get initial thoughts. Following that meeting chairs and coordinators will take input from their department members before we start looking at what classes are or are not running. It is a big puzzle and we do our best to include faculty - however, bottom line - If you are wondering about something related to numbers next week or after, feel free to reach out - we will be open and show you the requests.
Graduation Gowns Inventory - Barb will begin her annual graduation gowns inventory project. If you have your school issued one at home, please bring it in. If you are new to the building, Barb will be asking you for your height so we can get yours ordered for graduation.
Altered A.M. 46 min Advisory 3/1/23 - There will be an altered a.m. Advisory schedule on Wednesday to allow for a Junior ACT meeting in the auditorium followed by juniors returning to their classroom to complete tutorials and practice tests. Those who did not complete the MyACT.org accounts will be asked to do so on Monday. Juniors should report to Advisory and will be excused by announcement to report to the auditorium. Please instruct students to sit with their advisory classmates and you as the teacher in your assigned area. Remind your students Monday to make sure they bring their iPads fully charged. Sophomore and Senior ELTs should use the time as an extended Study Hall. Altered Advisory a.m. Schedule for Tuesday, 3/1/2

Free Colored Paper - Just a friendly reminder that each building was sent a binder of free colored paper that is available to each building. Please see Dawn Seehafer to check the colors and sizes that are available. There is some already in the high school and others that can be received from the warehouse within a day or so.1 Altered 46m Advisory a.m. for junior ACT meeting, Auditorium
