FACULTY
PLC TIDBIT OF THE DAY: District goals should include stretch goals. These goals will be so challenging that people throughout the organization will be called upon to build new capacities in order to achieve them. Stretch goals inspire, capture imagination, stimulate creativity and innovation and unify. (Radford)
TEACHERS: Just a reminder on use of printers. Please limit the number of copies printed to five; if you need more copies make a master and then use the copy machines. Print copies are far more expensive and running several copies ties up the machines especially during nutrition break and lunch when students are printing. The printer in the library is just hanging in there and my other printer is broken beyond repair. Thank you for your cooperation. (Mr. R.)
