Monday, November 30 Good morning, I hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful Happy Thanksgiving holiday. In these challenging times, we continue to see dedicated people go above and beyond to support their neighbors and communities. Thank you to everyone that is making a difference in our school community and beyond. Can you believe we only have three weeks of school before winter break? Time is flying! This week’s newsletter is a little lighter than normal. I’ve posted the Monday Message video for this week which includes some fun student challenges. Check it out if you have time. This week’s schedule: • Monday & Tuesday - Normal class schedule • Wednesday - Community Connection and Advisory meetings. • Thursday & Friday - Normal class schedule High school club rush - Next Wednesday, December 9th we will be holding a “club rush” immediately following our Advisory meetings. This is a great opportunity for our students to explore the new clubs. I’ll share additional information next week. Middle school electives - If your middle school student has not yet signed up for an elective, please ask them to complete the form as quickly as possible (even if they are not going to take an elective). Electives that are hosted by our Virtual Online Program staff will begin on this Wednesday, December 2. (UPDATED) Winter Blitz - This is a wonderful community service project I was involved in while I was at Clackamas High School. In 1997 two staff members at Clackamas High School created a community service project to support one family during the holidays. The idea was to do a one day scavenger hunt for a tree, food, gifts, clothes and household items. The Winter Rage Event became a community services project that the entire student body participated in. It has grown to adopting over 200 families and helping over 500 students in the North Clackamas School District. If you would like to be involved or know a family that would benefit from this event, please follow the link: https://tinyurl.com/y4lbz9qf (UPDATED) From Ms. Wojtak, our School Counselor -Ms. Wojtak is finishing student schedules and looking through transcripts.
