Focus on the SMALL wins! 

I know how hard these first three months have been on so many of you. To be totally honest with you, this past month I have struggled at times with my energy, my focus and mostly worrying about the health and safety of all of you and the students. It's a lot. What keeps me going is focusing on the positives and embracing those moments. Whether it's reading positive tweets, watching our teams play, writing positive notes, time with family or just talking with students, those small moments are saving me and keeping me going.  All of those SMALL moments in each day make all of this manageable. We all need to find ways to get through this and be there for our students. Give the small wins a chance, I really think it can help and bring some joy to what we are going through. We need to stay Warrior strong, we need to remain positive for our own mental health and for our students.  

Please consider sharing how you are doing and if you need anything from me via the 

Mindset Check In form.

#2 General Supplies Order - Due December 4th

Below is the spread sheet for all of your general budget items by department. Please enter all of the items you wish to purchase in the spreadsheet.  This is not new, we have done this in the past. 

For the most part budgets are staying the same so keep that in mind.  If there is something new that you want and you are not sure money-wise, see me. We might be able to get some of these items with this year's budget.
