Thoughts for the Week:
I would like to give a huge thank you to Guidance and everyone who had schedules disrupted due to 5 weeks
of testing.
Shout-out to the OHS Band! They were rated straight SUPERIOR at the FBA in Jensen. Outstanding!
The support for Tyrell Taylor and Trey Howard was amazing this week. Thank you for your compassion for
our current and former students. These two former Brahmans will be missed.
Look over your evaluation rubric to refresh on indicators #5-#11. Picture what those would look like in a
classroom setting.
Tutorials have begun every Tuesday and Thursday. If you have a student struggling in your class, offer this
option to the parents when you make your calls.
We are still looking for volunteers to help with events this week. PEP Rally/Bonfire, Football game,
Homecoming Dance.
Start collecting your items for Homecoming Week!
I included the Homecoming schedule on page 3. Please share with your with your 3rd hour PRIDE class.

During both Lunches our goal is to get the entire school involved with the community
donations therefore, we will be asking all students to donate a $1.00 per day - Buckets will
be labeled with class name and the all funds collected will be divided 50/50: Class will
receive half and community organization will receive other half.
Collection of Items per day for organizations: Boxes will be labeled with class name and
located in front of the main office Students will have until 2nd hour to drop off items.
Someone will be there to monitor the donations and boxes will be taken in after 2nd hour
and items will be counted.
