FMS students received a $30 gift package of school
supplies this summer.
Thank you to the counselors and social
workers for helping to identify students in
need.
- 80
faculty members have taken advantage of the wall
charts we purchased for classroom use.
There are some left for those teachers
who still would like one and for those who need an
additional chart.
Please see Charlie in room 354 (don't
forget to sign your name when you take one.)
There are still some A-pads left.
Teachers must pay $6 (see Pat Spawn).
If any teaching assistants desire one, they
should see Amy Tubbs.
- The
GCRTC is offering a 15 hour program on study
skills. It
is a NYSUT ETP course and is being taught by Susan
LaFond from GHS.
The dates are Saturdays, March 5, 18 and
April 9 from 8:30-2 pm at Sand Creek MS.
- Two
teachers have volunteered their 6th
graders to work with Lisa Mahoney and the Parent
Paper Posse. This group of parents works with students to
organize/clean out their lockers, binders, etc.
- We
are seeking parent volunteers to help set up our Study
Skills display in the Learning Center.
If any staff knows of great resources for
study skills, please let us know.
We hope to add to our display this year.
- Charlie
Gifford will be e-mailing quick, useful Study
Skills tips 2x/month to all staff.
If anyone has clever ideas to share, drop
an e-mail or hard copy of your tip to Charlie
Gifford (Hiawatha mailbox).
- We
will be developing an application process for
teachers to apply for small sums of money (approx.
$15) who can justify a purchase as study skills
related. You
will hear more within the next month.
Next
meeting is Friday 11/5 at 8 am in MOCR.
All are welcome.
