(survey results--when do we do the student sessions? 3 votes for one day 7 votes for doing it over four days 10 votes for 4 in morning schedule...having homerooms go through. This means we would teach the same technology course during period 5. The rationale for this is that ALL the students would benefit since English and math do not have all the students. || Put this off until we have a chance to talk to each PLC group about what technologies?

Goal is to have Mark and Traci come to our PLC meetings. Purpose--more support from Mark and Traci which would help us going into the meetings and it will also help our sessions be more meaningful.

October 19th-Wednesday- American Cultures-- Rob's room A135 October 21st- Friday - Comm. Arts (12:41- 1:30ish?) Meet in Renee's room A143 October 25th- Tuesday --Science, Diana's room A141 October 27th- Thursday-- Math...A136 (Joy's room) (advisory day) 12:35- 1:15

Our new goal for the student sessions is the first week of November. It would be difficult to do it on an Advisory day, so Monday(Oct. 31st), Tuesday (Nov. 1), Wednesday(Nov. 2nd), and Friday (Nov. 4th) ||  ||
 * Parent session || Homepage of wiki ---you will find the letter that will be sent home to parents. November 15th from 7-8:30 pm. This is for all parents, not just 8th grade parents.

Mention to parents-- Home Access on Safari; we will be putting more info on Safari as the year goes on.

Will we have a survey prior to the parent session to know who will be coming and what grade their child is in?? (Most of us think we should have parents RSVP first) ||  || Do we want to add "playing games" to Aristotle. Answer: yes!
