I love to read month closes in styleAs "I Love to Read" month comes to a close, we need to celebrate one of Morris School's quiet heroes who works behind the scenes to make the month memorable. Mrs. Cindy Smith bakes ... and bakes ... and bakes. To the tune of 23 dozen "I Love to Read" cookies that are enjoyed by all the K to 6 students. Thank you Mrs. Smith for being so willing to help out and share your talents with us every February! We would also like to thank Mrs. Dekezel and all the staff who made this a priority in the library and their classrooms over the month! Readers are leaders! Grade 8 - 11 students...next year is calling!This past week, Mrs. Edel met with Grade 8 to 11 students regarding their course selections for next year. This was an important meeting as it will assist with planning timetables for the 2020-21 school year for the Senior Years' students. I would ask that parents have conversations with their students about their elective choices to ensure they are selecting courses they require to meet their academic goals as well as courses they enjoy. The Process
Please let Mrs. Edel or Mr. Watson know if you have any questions.
