Welcome Back!

Honor Rolls—You will find in your box an "A" and "A-B" Honor Roll list. This will let you know who gets honor roll ribbons without having to scan the report cards. You will notice, however, that everyone who appears on the "A" Honor Roll ALSO shows up on your "A-B" Honor Roll list. This is one of the features of STI that still needs some work. Before I send the names to the paper, I have to manually delete the names of the A- Honor Roll kids. I also have to delete the middle names by hand.

Copier—You may now use the new copier. We will have a Xerox representative come and do a training session, but for the basic things, you would be able to use it with no problem. Your copy has changed, however. The new machine has a minimum of 4 digits for an allowable code. What I have done is programmed in your old code and added a zero to the end. So that you only have one copy code to remember, I have made the same change on the Panasonic machine in the Community Classroom.

Would you like to change your copy code? The reason we all had 3-digit copy numbers was that one of the machines we once had would not accept more than 3 digits. Either one of these machines will take up to 8 digits. If you would like to keep your code what it is now (your old copy code + zero), do nothing. If you would like to change it, let me know what you would like to change it to. The deadline on this will be January 13. After school on that day, I will make all of the changes at one time.

Letters to Board Members—We have a class volunteering to write letters to Mr. Hare, Mrs. Simmons-Sims, and Mrs. Miller. Do we have a class volunteering to write to Mrs. McGhee or Mr. Braswell? (As a reminder, the event is School Board Member Recognition Month (scroll back to the December 15 post).
