Welcome to 2015-2016!

Welcome to the 2015-2016 school year! I am incredibly excited to begin the year and share it with my CCLS family. This blog is in an important place to get started. Here are a few notes about how to navigate.

• This main page is where I will post larger announcements that are not necessarily grade/subject specific. I may also leave homeroom information here.
• My Twitter feed will also appear in the top right corner of the main page. I will do my best to leave  reminders, as well as post pictures of activities in real time. You do not need Twitter to get that information. It will always show up on the blog. Of course, you are more than welcome to follow my school account if you already use Twitter.
• The links to information on 8th grade Discipleship and Scholastic book information are on this page.
• There are links at the top for each individual subject area. On those separate blog spaces, I will leave information and pictures. Students, you can use the links on that blog for assignment directions, lost assignments, etc. Parents, I will try and update the blog with information and pictures of what is happening in class. It will also be the place I post most of the technology projects we do in class.

It would be a help to subscribe to this and each subject blog so you are alerted when I update.

Check the history blog!

8th grade parents, please check the 8th grade history blog for information about the research paper. We are in the very early stages, but these stages lay the foundation and are perhaps the most important!

Academic Team

This post is a bit late, but I wanted to congratulate both teams that competed in the Missouri Scholar Bowl. We had amazing results, and I truly had a great time spending practices and meets with these students.

Congratulations to both the White and the Red team! Sorry that I only have pictures of the team that I coached. We were second in State--which is a truly great achievement!
