5th Grade
This week, students explored careers in the Green: Agriculture Sciences career cluster. A lot of the students related to many of the careers that they explored as they love animals and being outside.
6th, 7th Grade - Career Exploration
This week, students completed the remaining lessons in Xello where they explored their own interests that provide them with information about what job or career path might be the best fit for them. Next week, they will get the chance to dive a little deeper into a specific career.
8th Grade - Career Exploration
If you haven't completed this Google Form yet, please do so by next Tuesday. I sent this yesterday, but it sounds like it went to some people's spam again...I'm sorry.
CAREER DAY TRANSPORTATION
8th Grade Health Class Discussion
Next week, Mrs. Schrader and Nurse Abby will be visiting the Health Classes to speak with the 8th grade students about the dangers and risks of taking and sending inappropriate photos. During this presentation, students will watch THIS VIDEO and have a discussion about the potential long-term consequences of engaging in such behaviors. They will talk about how having these images on their phones can result in consequences of child pornograpny distribution, possession and production. The discussion will happen with boys and girls separately. If you do NOT want your student to be a part of this discussion, please let Mrs. Dooley or Mrs. Schrader know by the end of the day on Monday (February 27).
Attendance
I came across these infographics this week, and I thought it had some good, easy to read information. Attendance is so important! A lot of students who I work with get overwhelmed when they miss school. If a kid is sick, then they shouldn't come to school, but if they are just having an "off day," I always encourage them to try it first. Most of the time, after they get here, see their friends and wake up a little bit, they are good to go! I always tell students they are more than welcome to come by my office if they are having a slow start to their day -- we all have those every once in a while. If your student is struggling in the mornings and consistently saying they don't want to come to school, please reach out to me. I want to help them be successful!
