Busy week? But it's only four days!


Where does the time go? We'll know at the end of this week when all the things we're working on will get done.

We have Leadership Day. We have Willy Wonka. We have lots of meetings and other activities, especially preparation for the M-Step. I could think of other names for the test, but I'm too tired and too busy to be glib. The test begins on the 13th with 5th grade. I will get everything ready and we'll see the grand experiment take place the Monday we return from Spring Break.

The best thing about working at Cooper is the staff, hands down. Our ability to rise to challenges has always been a hallmark here. We will get through this week and the other challenges facing us in April and May. June will arrive. We will survive.

It's Leadership Day Week! So many staff members have been working hard to organize and prepare for the the event that we should be successful in LD-IV. Thanks especially goes to Nicole for taking on the leadership to organize the event. Lauren also deserves our thanks for all she's doing to get the building ready. There are so many others to thank... We should be proud of our students and our school.

Karen, Sue G., and Colleen S. have the cast ready for Willy Wonka this week. Performances will occur with the main performance Tuesday evening. Watching the practices over the weeks, I've seen incredible improvement. The cast is wonderful. It will be a great show!

A video recording crew from RESA will be in the building to record Sally and her work with teachers as a Literacy Lab. They will be using the conference room and the Cafe.
