Hello Summer

Summer arrives Thursday. 

 We have nine days till year end. So far we have had three lovely award gatherings. One in Rainbow, one in Blue Hills and one in High level last Friday. 
Each was a celebration of all that students do and all that staff do, to get kids to a space where they can see success. 

 Kat Winter spoke about Eric and his impact on her. She said she was a reluctant student and he made her believe she could do it. She travelled from Vancouver to honor her teacher. Now that's a lovely way to retire! What an honor to hear her talk about Eric. (made me tear a little.) Huge thanks to Bonnie for inviting her to our celebration. 

 You all  impact our kids daily and for years to come. You might never know it  but you do. How lucky are you to be working in Outreach and Zama. How lucky are our kids that you are working in Outreach!

 Think About these things. 
  • Report cards are due next Wed.
  • Diplomas are still being written
  • PATS being written this week
  • Finishing courses we have a stragglers that are finishing courses. We always do but you know the student, the ones who still have materials out are our really hard working kids and we will give them some lee way. 
  • Clean up our buildings- Lets go through our buildings and get rid of the stuff we dont need. Getting organized is key to starting next year off right.
  • We are saying good bye to Darren, Petra, Levi and Eric. It's been the best team ! Thank you for all you've done. We say hello to Allan Spelrem, Anna Lise Dyck and Linda Friesen. I am still searching for Petra's replacement, a girl will call me Monday and we have applications for Levi's job.  
  • Zama- we are moving the last of the items from the portables into the main building. 
  • Courses over the summer- That is not happening unless we have talked it over. We have given out a couple of things but only a couple in rare cuircumstances. 
  • Intervention checks- You can't work with us next year with out it. Take the time during the school day to get it done. 
  •  Registrations- people are coming in wnating to register kids for next year- by all means do that. We welcome these new students.

Report Card Week

Report Card Week A terrific way to catch up with our kids, a time to think deeply about that student and where they are going. A teacher always asks themselves , how well do i know that student. If the answer is not well, we seek to get to know them better next semester. Report Cards are valuable to the student and their families and the process is so valuable to us. We can always do better.  Thank Yous Thanks  so much to all of you who took in the PD last week. From chatting with you my thoughts were the sessions were valuable.  Thanks  to all who are organizing the Wing Ding in High Level this Tuesday. Many local organizations are coming in to inform our students.  Thanks to all who made student contacts this week. Talking personally to our kids seems to make a difference.  Staffing We are close to hiring for the position in Fort. Monday or Tuesday I will be able to announce it.  My records show everyone here this week.  Anne's schedule Monday at

Speedy Memo

While on the airplane, I looked quizzically at the woman beside me wearing a mask... Ha! Turns out She knew germs were flying around that plane. Now, I have those sickness germs and she's partying somewhere! Note to self...masks look ridiculous but keep you germ-free!!!  Or perhaps the story goes this way... she had some horrible cold and it seeped out from her mask to infect me... Either way, she has a part to play in this mini illness, of that I am sure!   Lots going on this week- please remember that we are 1 week from May our kids need to pour it on these next few weeks.   Stanley Cup playoffs are continuing with just a few rounds to finish. Go Toronto, go Winnipeg!  Report cards are due Wed they go home on Friday. Parent-teacher interviews are happening in the weeks ahead. Those dates will be solidified this week.  PAT part A is in for grade nines. That is written middle of May. Nait comes to High Level. A counselor and two journeyman carpenters are coming to

Action

This week in our CRM's we talked about our students and assigned actions to several. We are starting to figure this out;  people are coming forward to volunteer to do that action. In the past, we sat back waiting to see who might be assigned. Now, you are developing relationship with these students and are saying, " I can do that, I know her pretty well." or " I'd like to try to make contact with him, I have a soft spot for him."  That is the way CRM's are supposed to function, thank you for stepping up. CRM's ground us for the month to come. No kid is falling through the cracks without us grabbing his or her arm and trying to pulling him back on track. Wow! Cliche ville there! All English teachers are cringing!  Congratulations Congratulations to Eva, Bonnie, Dean and Jenine. The numbers in our buildings are finalized, that is a lot of work for you and we appreciate your patience.  Congratulations to Chad and Liz for such great numbers at
