SUMMER READING:
We consider our Summer Reading program an important component toward the academic progress of all of our students. Summer Reading lists have been given to students who are taking English this semester. Students who do not have English this semester may access the lists from the Library Media Center link on the eChalk page or pick up copies in the Library. Students have been given information about purchasing summer reading books if they need to do so. The deadline for ordering summer reading books is Friday, May 9th. Contact the Media Center at 425-8937 if you have questions about Summer Reading.

TECHNOLOGY TRUMPETS:
This month's Technology Trumpets are given to Weslynn Hutto, math teacher, and to Karen Ortiz, Instructional Technology Specialist for their implementation of VYEW, an online workspace with whiteboard, chat and collaboration capabilities. Students in Ms. Weslynn Hutto's classes are using VYEW to more actively involve students of all mathematical levels. Ms. Hutto has also used this site in the afternoons and evenings to review with students before tests. Students have chatted online with Ms.Hutto at predetermined times. We envision many uses of this tool during school and after school times.
