12/1/14 MMM

I hope all of your Thanksgiving Break was wonderful and that you've had your fill of turkey and pie.  Mine was wonderful.  I went Black Friday shopping (Yuck!) and spent a lot of time putting up Christmas lights.  Here are some pictures of me and my house.

It took me a while.  Sometimes I wish all I had to do was this.

In the end it was all worth it and I like how my house looks.

To Be Aware of

• I think most who are going to have signed up for +Remind.  If you haven't, let me know and I will show you how.
• We are getting close to the Christmas break.  I know the events committee has been getting things together for faculty festivities leading up to the break.  Pay attention to emails and sign up sheets so you are all aware.
• I will be gone today from 11 to about 1 to a funeral.
• There is a new program called iready that will apparently help with math mastery.  We were able to get access to it through the State STEM action grant.  I will try and sign up for a time for the iready people to come give us some training.  It may be in the form of some webinars, but if I get them scheduled, I will try and make it happen on a Monday from 2:30-4 in place of PLCs so you don't have to spend any extra hours at school.  I'll let you know when this is.  I've been promised that this will not add to your plate already full of programs and systems, but we will see.

Celebrations

• Congrats and thanks to Mary and the choir, Angie Lowe and her ballroom crew/kids, and the Reading Committee for getting to school EARLY on Monday for the KSL AM show.  Thanks to teachers and kids for showing up early as well.  Thanks to the PTA for organizing and providing some early morning munchies. And last but not least, Thanks to Steve and his crew for making sure the school was in tiptop condition.  Steve was here for many hours during the weekend too.  Please say thank you to all who were involved.
