Week of March 30

Good Evening,

Thank you for attending our first Tech Expo. We hope you were able to walk away with a greater understanding of how we use technology as a learning tool. We also hope you were able to gain an understanding of areas we are strive to guide students in so they can learn how to use technology responsibly.

Thanks also goes to our StuCo for a great dance on Thursday evening. Even though the tacos arrived a bit late.....fun was had by all! Also, really want to thank you for the prompt pick ups of your son/daughters after such events.....makes for an enjoyable ending for everyone....you don't know how greatly our staff appreciates your efforts in this area.

Our next big demonstration of learning opportunity.....

Quarter 3 Reports will be available for viewing on Power School on Friday, April 4 at 12:00 noon. Many of our teachers are traveling this week to the NE/SA Teacher's Conference so updates will not be ready until they have a chance to arrive at their destination.
