I hope that everyone had an opportunity to spend time with family during Thanksgiving Break.  I was fortunate to spend some time with my son in the Spokane area, and catch a couple of Zag basketball games during my visit.

We are looking very carefully at the schedule for next year, already.  We are very aware of the lack of elective courses currently offered.  It is an area that we hope to make some positive change in for next year.  We are also looking at making changes to courses with an eye on advanced course offerings, maybe expanding them to some degree.

I want to share that our students have just been outstanding in so many ways this year.  We have instituted some rule changes in the building and the response in terms of their actions, from the students, has been one of compliance with those rules which has lead to a more orderly building both in and out of the classroom.  We are working hard at holding students accountable for regular attendance at school.  We believe that if students attend regularly, they will be successful at moving towards graduation from high school.  Our fall sports had great seasons with virtually all teams experiencing league and state involvement at the end of their seasons.  Lastly, what great attitudes your kids have.  They are upbeat, positive, and involved in their school and education...thanks parents!
