Great Things Seen & Heard

Thank you to all the staff who helped with the Grad ceremony: it is truly appreciated!
In the height of emotional upheaval, we know we have an admirable teacher who will try his best to turn things back to a positive note, with constructive ideas and a gentle tone!
When a teacher asked the student how his CTS module was coming, he slipped and said, “My mom has almost finished it.”
Be wary at all times because we have recently heard that a teacher stripped down on the bus not knowing that all school buses have cameras running at all times. Not sure which school the teacher was from though…
In describing the class at the end of the day, a teacher described it as being exactly like “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest!”
