I don't ever recall a Wednesday Morning Blog! 

Hoping your holiday was fabulous. Relaxing is fabulous, organizing is fabulous, getting your mind and body in order is fabulous, painting and renovating is fabulous, spending time with your kids is fabulous, spending time with grandkids is fabulous, getting a sunburn in the tropics is fabulous, spending time with your mom is fabulous, being on your own is fabulous. 

What isn't fabulous is:

Having flights cancelled for two full days,  there and back to Toronto. Do not fly Swoop!
Had to pay for a night in a hotel on the way there. 
Watched my first robbery in Hamilton Mall while my flight was delayed 27 hours. Well really I only saw the robbers with masks on running out the door. Should have stuck my foot out! They stole diamonds and jewels! 
Paid for an extra flight on the way home to get to see my grandbaby on Easter morning. ( i wasn't waiting 27 hours in Hamilton) Plus paid a rental car drop off fee.
I single handedly boosted the economy of Ontario! They are good now! You are welcome Doug Ford!
Plus I kind of got a speeding ticket. I was getting so mad at the guy in the white truck passing me then slowing right down! He did that twice! Why would he do that? Oh I get it....................... You have a radar detector! Duh! He must have laughed so hard when I got caught, I would have!  

I really had a great visit with my mom. She will be going on an Alaskan Cruise in June. She's doing just fine! 

My hopes are you are doing just fine too, and are ready for only two more months of school.

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.  M...

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 ...

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 counselo...
