Okay, folks, I know what's going down next week. Here's the idea:
Monday and Tuesday: Much like last year, you will be with your families (the high school members), rotating through four seminars each day. There will be lunch and physical activity. There may even be a Mark and the Demerits performance in there somewhere.
Wednesday: Seniors will be divided into four small groups and will go through four senior-specific seminars, led by the 12th grade team. Lunch and activity time.
Thursday: You will go to first through fourth period for syllabi collection, introductions, etc. Lunch and activity time.
Friday: You will go through fifth, seventh, eighth and ninth periods. Lunch and activity time.
So! Since I will see you for a shortened amount of time, I will not have an after-school tutorial for the summer reading assignment. I will help y'all with it on Thursday or Friday in class, and it will still be due on Monday, August 9th.
Any questions?

Getting ready
Back-to-school shopping is just about my favorite thing, especially when you have a hefty gift card with which to do it. :D
I got your journals covered. My stepdaughter and I rifled through all of them until we had 50 reds and 50 grays.

Summer reading tutorial
Hey '11 kids,
No idea if you read this, but updating anyway. Although we start school on August 2nd, your summer reading assignments are not due until Monday, August 9th.
Here's why. The week of August 2-6 will be half days, meaning you will be dismissed at noon. We won't be following a regular schedule on those days. I'm sure you have questions on what those days will be like, and I just don't know the answer to that yet. Hopefully I will soon. (I go back to school July 26, so I'll know that week.)
One day during that first week of half-days, I will hold a tutorial after school to go over the writing assignment that accompanies your nonfiction selection. I highly recommend you attend the session, which will probably include snack items. In the meantime, keep reading, and let me know if you have any questions.
