Book Drive
Flyers went home this week. I know we have the canned food drive still happening and a lot of holiday stuff in class but we wanted to get it out before break since a lot of people clean things out over the break.

PLCs
Just a reminder that PLC goes until 3:30. I feel I am very reasonable when it comes to when teachers need to leave early on other days but on PLC days please work with your team until 3:30. If for some reason you need to leave earlier on a PLC Monday please ask me first.
