Today is day 1 on the specials calendar.
The PBS staff basketball game is this morning from 9-10:00. You should have a list of the students who will be attending. Students will be sent back to class after the game. If no one needs hospitalization afterward :-), we may discuss a way to do another at the end of the year involving more staff and students. (after hours, even sell tickets.)
Last night Gibson was honored by the WSFCS school board for all of the hard work of our staff and students last year. Our school was in the top 10 schools in composite growth in EOG scores. We had a 12.4 percent growth in our scores and ranked number 7. There is a beautiful plaque that will soon be on display. We were also recognized for making AYP in 2008-2009. Great work everyone. Let's build upon that success this year.
Several staff members have started blogs this year and Mrs. Charpentier has a link on our main website page to all of the blogs so far. That way, all of the blogs will be in one place. Congratulations to Mrs. Hamric on starting a blog. Whether a teacher creates a blog or uses the website to communicate with parents, both are excellent ways to use technology to reach parents.
Please remember all WSFCS maintained websites should be updated today. To prevent duplication, providing a link or the address to your blog (if you have one) on your website can replace retyping much of that information.
