HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
I hope that all of you enjoyed your holiday as much as I did. I love the opportunity that each new year brings to set goals for myself. This new year is no exception. With any luck, I will be a better person in 2009.
Here are a couple of items of interest for you that are coming up in January. The end of the 1st semester for CHS is January 13th. Please encourage your students to work with their respective teachers to ensure that their grades are where they want them to be.
On Thursday, January 8th, we will be hosting School Board meeting in the CHS library. Please feel free to attend and watch our elected officials at work. Feel free to contact me if you would like a copy of the agenda in advance.
We will be administering the MAP assessment to all 1st-10th grade students beginning on January 12th. The MAP assessment measures how our students are doing in the areas of Math, Reading, and Language Arts. It generally takes us about 2 weeks to get everyone assessed. We use the results of this assessment to identify areas where our students collectively, or individually, may be struggling. If you are interested in your child's results, please feel free to contact me.
With any luck, we might get some snow and begin our winter sports program. The program is scheduled to start January 9th. We will keep you updated as information becomes available to us. If any of you know any good snow dances, let 'em rip!
As always, thank you for your continued interest in our schools!
