New Directions; Wednesday Groundwork

Today, students handed in their responses to the Reading Guide Questions about Maya Angelou's "New Directions" (in the Lit Textbook.)

After returning some student work, and collecting a few straggling Career Fair Permission Slips (Are you reading this, Caleb P? Zach C?), we took some time in class to lay a strong foundation for tomorrow, which by all accounts, is going to be a pretty crazy day:

  • Students arrive to school ON TIME (you will not be allowed to begin the PSAT late)
  • Report to your 1st period class
  • Take the PSAT (Everyone is taking it. Questions about this absolutist statement should be directed to the Guidance Department.)
  • There are no snack/bathroom breaks during the PSAT. That means until 11:35ish. Prepare accordingly.
  • After the administration of the PSAT, students have a lunch block until about 11:55
  • Freshmen will gather in the Auditorium to get into their bus groups, meet their chaperones, and receive their Career Fair Workbooks.
  • We'll head out to the Music City Center for a wonderful afternoon of exploring future opportunities.
  • When we return (around 2:30), we'll wind down the day in the auditorium.

Reminders For Tomorrow:
  • Dress For Success
  • Bring pencils/pens
  • You probably won't need your whole backpack.
  • Leave your electronics behind. At you house, in your locker, whatever.
