Feb 19-22

Happy Tuesday Everyone! I hope you all had a chance to spend the long holiday weekend with those you love in a fun relaxing way! This weeks blog is dedicated to thanking our School Site Council (SSC). This committee comprised of 6 parents and 6 staff members oversees the school budget, as well as helps to determine school goals. Through their support and planning we were able to acquire new computers for the classrooms. This upgrade has been a long time coming. What made it even tougher, is due to budget cuts we had to make the difficult decision decision to eliminate our tech support person this year. Old, slow hardware coupled with limited or no tech support made for a real rough start. However, thanks to some frugal planning and the vision of a progressive future, the SSC was able to allocate funding to purchase 150 computers. Through the help of some tech savy 6th graders we have been able to install almost all of the computers and the impact has been great! As an FYI, SSC members serve a 2 year term and elections are held each year to replace those whose term is up. I encourage you all to put yourself on the ballot which will come out as we come to the end of this year.

Hanover Survey

Each year our District sends out a survey to all staff, students and parents to ensure we’re doing the best job possible. All 4th through 6th grade students completed to the survey in school, but we need parents to complete it as well. If you have not taken the survey yet please spend some time answering the questions. This information helps to provide us the information we need to continue to improve.
