The start of a new semester is always so hopeful and so heavy at the same time! There is so much to do, so much to do.

I apologize for the long absence. When I began to get ill, I found that this was one thing that I just had to let slide. But I think it’s important, so I’m back in the technological saddle, yet again.

The biggest, newest things for this year are twofold. First, we are creating an after-school program for students who misbehave or don’t do their work. We’d like to use this as a time for extra effort and work. Second, I decided that Reading Logs in planners are not working, so I have created a sheet that students will turn in on Mondays, not Fridays. It is SO important that students read every day; I am making that my top priority.
