Monday Memo Musings

Tis the season for... Walking in the rain,not avoiding it planting something going to a golf course- you don't have to play  although playing is fun-but go have lunch there- golf courses are beautiful!! basking in the sunshine just listening to the summer sounds stopping for long periods and chatting to people - people arent in such a rush in the summer months enjoying iced drinks watching the bugs do what they do- mi watched a bee on my flowers for about ten minutes- man hes industrious do something for someone and don't expect anything in return go, just go!!! We're lucky we have four seasons as quick as they may be- others have only one- how sad!!! Congratulations Congratulations to Eva who was awarded with her 10 years of service award.

Here's a look at the trail sign on the Fortner Trails by the airport. We've been working on this for three years already. Check it out!! In High Level this morning, we were doing a landscaping session with students from High Level Public and our HLLS students. Students learned about plants and growth regions. They also learned they can take something that looks like nothing and make it look great. They worked hard painting, moving wood and fertilizing. Tomorrow they will continue with their work designing landscapes and will build raised planters for seniors to access. So much more than just planting and work going on... they are chatting away and putting their designs down on the computer.  Set them free and they might surprise  you. * An aside- did you know many of those kids didn't even know the name of the kid they had been in class with for 6 weeks. That is so ridiculous. I hope that doesn't happen in our schools. Kids should know who is who.     Thank yo

What a difference a week makes... What a difference a week makes to friends who used to live in High Level but moved to Fort McMurray. They left with their baby and two dogs and that's all they have... What a difference a week makes to thousands who had employment and don't this week... Let's not just think about the fire... What a difference a week makes to a student who had a home in High Level and this week lives at Safe Home... What a difference a week makes to a High School boy whose Mom passed away and his girlfriend dumped him... What a difference you can make in touching base with your friends or your students in getting them through whatever they are going through...contacting them and letting them know you are, we are, here for them is freeing and consoling.   What a difference a week makes, what a difference you can make.  Thank yous Thanks to Mark and Nicole for turning their classroom into a life cycles movie set. They have eggs hatching, ,
