In nine school days it will be March 1. Amazing! I hope everyone gets to enjoy their time off later this week and into next. The break is well deserved.
For the ninth consecutive year our 9th grade students will be offered the chance to have a free heart screening provided by the Sean Fisher Memorial Foundation. The dates for this year's screening were confirmed on Friday and will take place on April 9 and 10. More details to follow.
This tweet hit home with me and the connection to what #OwnitWHS is all about. Keep pushing your students to be "uncomfortable" and take them out of their comfort zone when it comes to their learning.
Important DatesIf our focus is solely on "engagement" in the classroom, we've created a culture where the student needs a teacher to learn. If we focus more on empowerment, the student gains ownership over their own learning, growth, and direction. #InnovatorsMindset— George Couros (@gcouros) February 10, 2018
