Giving Tree Homeroom/Advisory Contest Week 2 Update

With the last day of the Giving Tree Homeroom/Advisory Contest coming up, the Wang/Merrylees MSUSadvisory continues to lead with the purchase of 18 Giving Tree cards. In the PS Division, Ms. McCormack’s 2nd grade class has taken the lead with 14 Giving Tree cards. While cards and money are due tomorrow, it’s not too late to email Mr. Romero for more cards. There are still more to buy and we can’t stop until they are all bought. So it’s not too late to participate and there’s no such thing as buying too many or too few. Thank you to everyone for your support and generosity.

Textbook checkout – check it out!

Teachers, did you know that you have the power to check student textbooks in AND out using your phone, iPad, and/or laptop?!? With a transition period coming up and students leaving, give yourself the peace of mind of KNOWING that your student has actually returned all of his or her textbooks before signing the clearance form. Music, IT, and Design staff are also able to check materials such as instruments and cameras out to students. This amazing power is brought to you by the Follett Destiny app. Want more information? Click on the link for directions, and remember, you can always ask your friendly neighborhood librarian!

Boomwhacker Needed

Hey teachers,

Are you looking to fulfill your volunteer requirements for Ms Anna before the end of the semester? Is your ManageBac looking empty? Well, I have an opportunity for you!

I have 7 very happy teacher volunteers who would LOVE to be hit over the head with a musical instrument during next week’s Winter Assembly… but I need 8. I’m looking for one more!

If you are interested, please let me know this week. Here’s your schedule:

Thursday lunch 1: MSUS teachers’ tech rehearsal

Thursday lunch 2: PS teachers’ tech rehearsal

Friday morning: MSUS and PS performances during the winter assembly

Thanks!

Amy

(PS: If I don’t get my last volunteer, I’m going to continue my current strategy of accosting people in their classrooms!)
