I hope you all had a wonderful first full week of school.  I’m sure that you are looking forward to a weekend to recuperate from such a busy week.  Thank you for all of your hard work, effort, and positive attitude you bring to our school.

If you turned in your classroom microphone to be fixed last year, and didn’t get it back, please come to the office and retrieve it.  The sound systems in the classrooms can make a big difference in how well students can hear and understand. 

Please notice that on the calendar, we will be practicing our evacuation drill next week.  Please review the procedure with your students.  I will distribute maps next week in case you are unable to find your map from last year.

I read a book this summer called the Traveler’s Gift.  In this book the main character visits with Harry S. Truman who provides the first step in decisions for success.   He talks about accepting responsibility for our successes, past, and decisions.  Not allowing blame for uncontrollable forces or web of the past, but to look forward and not allowing history to control destiny.  As we continue to improve what we do, I think it is important to remember that bad days are good data days (Training quote from Change Anything).

Thought:  “Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.”  Dr. Seuss 

Have a fantastic weekend.
