SS Plans For Week of Feb. 13th

2 Things First: Thank you for all the parents and students who attended Student led Conferences, your involvement in your child's education is extremely valuable and appreciated. I am sorry that there was no posting/update from last week; I have finally gotten over my week long cold. I missed 2 days of work and some of the extras had to be ignored while I was ill. I am glad to say, that I am near 100% and ready to be back on track and in the classroom.
