Hello Everyone,
It was great to see so many of you at the meeting last night. Hope your questions were answered, but if another pops up, please let me know!

Also, we've got a field trip on Monday the 13th to Antioch Marina and we leave bright and early. Plan on being in Room 401 by 8:00 and leaving Greenbrook parking lot by 8:15!! Bring a bag lunch, a water bottle, a warm jacket and a warm hat. It can get cold out on the water, so let's be prepared!!!

There will be a mandatory Outdoor Ed. meeting in the MPR on Wednesday, February 8th from 7 - 8PM. This is a perfect opportunity to answer any questions if you are curious about the program. Each family will need to pick up the information packets necessary medical forms. This is also your first opportunity to sign up to be a chaperone. Fee for the trip is $350 and, by the way, chaperones are free!


A couple of forms have been added to the Project Requirement page regarding our Outdoor Ed. program. Feel free to download the ones you need, fill them out, and turn them in at the meeting on the 8th.

Also, in the Autobiography Project for Chapter 3, we (Ms. Eplin and I) added as an option the use of Glogster, but this will require your student, or you, to create your own account. The old teacher account I made last year never worked properly and was a nightmare to monitor. Kids were friending each other and doing all sorts of mischievous stuff. No good. Your private account, shared only with me, should remain secure and awesome. Utilize it if you wish.
All forms and funds are due on Friday, March 23rd!

Best regards,

Colin Ritchie
