Hello Bulldog Families.
We hope you all are staying safe and warm as you head into the weekend! We know these temperatures make it difficult for our young people to want to get to school, but we’re hoping that with the start of a new quarter/semester next week, our students will be ready for a reset!
A positive aspect about the start of a new quarter/semester is that it helps us view our school year as an opportunity to “start over”. Students may be changing classes as they have wrapped up their semester elective courses. They may also have the opportunity to refocus on school as they transition into the new quarter as they received their second semester schedules today during their Advisory Bell. Focusing on the semester change is also a way to encourage our young people by showing them that the school year is half over and that they are almost there!
However we have to frame this in the thoughts of our students, please help us encourage them to keep moving forward. The winter months are typically difficult for students, so thank you for helping us by getting them to school and ready to engage in learning.
As you are perusing the newsletter, take a moment to review the information about our Mock Trial Team. They continue to compete against some difficult competition and are doing very well. We are proud of the work the students and Mr. Prindle are putting into the program!
Make sure you check out all of the important events that will be taking place on February 7, 2024. We will have our transition fair, parent teacher conferences, and the mandatory CCP student/parent information night. Please mark your calendars for all of these important meetings and use the sign up link (below) to register for the parent teacher conferences.
We wish our students a restful three-day weekend and look forward to seeing them back for the second semester on Tuesday, January 16th.
In service to our Bulldogs.
