FIRST AND IMPORTANTLY THANK YOU, to all the
elective teachers that have worked with us the past 2 days as we pulled
students from your classes for interviews. We put a big dent in the list
and I appreciate your support. Over the past 2 days we interviewed 44 7th
graders and 47 6th graders. We still have about 22, 7th
graders and 50, 6th graders left to interview. Thank we
appreciate your patience as we continue to pull students to finish the
interview process. I will be calling students out again class periods 1-3
on Thursday and Friday.
Secondly, reminder, AVID students are
still trying to raise money for t shirts and a field trip in May so we are
selling candy, microwave ACT 2 popcorn and bottled water. $1 each.
Please let me know if you need a snack in the day, and I can send a student
your way.
