2012 is off to a quick start

Wow, the school year has been so hectic and is flying by! I can't believe it has been 7 weeks already and we have Parent-Teacher conferences this week!

So far my year is off to a good start, I have 4 sections of regular bio, 1 section of AP Bio, and 1 study hall. I'm still serving as department chair and HS technology coordinator. I also am part of the committee starting the OLWEUS bully prevention program this school year- it has been a way bigger commitment than I anticipated and is eating up a lot of my afterschool time each week.

The most stressful part of school has been our upcoming levy. Our school is in financial trouble and is looking to cut many jobs. It is a scary time! Here is info on our upcoming levy and what will happen if it fails, http://demo15.schoolspan.com/5J598N34

I hope once the election is over and our OLWEUS program is in full swing I will have more time to post lessons on TpT. I feel like there is so much more I want to share with everyone! Plus it is nice getting a little extra cash, especially since I buy so much supplies out of my own pocket for my classroom and students.

Well, til then I leave you with a snapshot of my chalkboard. I draw a new design each day, last week was spirit day for homecoming so I made the board school spirit themed (the Falcon is our mascot).


Take care!
