Students are definitely getting deep into their learning as we head into Week 6. Seminars, Honors, and Clubs are all underway and officially launched! We have our first CLD day coming up next week and our first Community Dialogue coming up this week.
This Week’s Schedule:
This Week’s Announcements:
- CLD Day – Our first CLD Day is coming up this Tuesday, Sept. 23rd. On-campus learning workshops are from 8:30-12:30. Students check-in at the 201 Campus. Here is the List of On-Campus Workshops available on 9/23. If students did not request an on-campus workshop, they can still come and sign up on the day of any open session on campus. Students staying at home should have already turned in and uploaded the parent permission slip. Students should have joined the CLD Canvas Class. On 9/23, attendance will be taken via a “quiz” given on the Canvas Portal. Please note that it is mandatory for attendance credit; otherwise, students will be marked absent for CLD Day.
- Parent Advisory Committee – The Parent Advisory Committee, previously known as the School Site Council (SSC), provides an opportunity for parents, students, and staff to work collaboratively in reviewing the school program, analyzing data, identifying needs, and making recommendations for the Local Control and Accountability Plan. If you are a parent or guardian interested in joining our Parent Advisory Committee (PAC), please fill out the Parent Advisory Committee PAC Interest Form by Monday, September 22nd. PAC meetings will be held on the following dates: 10/08, 12/17, 2/11, 4/15, and 5/20 from 4:30-5:30 via Zoom. We are still looking for a few more PAC members!
