Monday-- Literacy Team meeting 7:15 AM in the media center. Thanks to all of our staff members volunteering to lead our literacy initiative and to Mike Aurin for facilitating this work. Also remember to join #DubChat on Twitter from 7:30 - 8:30 PM. This is a great way to learn Twitter if you are not yet familiar with it and also connect with other Dublin educators. If you would like to learn how to join it, just let us know.
Tuesday-- I will be meeting with the Governing Board at 7:20 AM in Guidance to plan our first PAC meeting this week.

Thursday-- Special Department Chair meeting to discuss Working Wednesday Oct. 1. Please note that this is change from the regular schedule and that we will not meet on Oct. 2.

Friday-- PTO-Sponsored first Staff Breakfast of the year in the teacher's lounge! Also first New to Jerome Teacher Meeting!
5th Period Friday-- First PAC meeting of the year! We always let students know that if they are taking a test, doing a Socratic Seminar or otherwise have to be in class that they can just attend during their lunch period. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about specific students missing class.
Friday night football on the road at Darby! For other athletic events, go to dublinschools.net/celtics. Go Celtics!
As you know we had 2 car break-ins on Saturday morning so please be very vigilant about not leaving any valuables in view or any bookbags, etc in view that a car thief may belief have something of value in them.
Looking ahead--
Oct. 1: First Working Wednesday. Adjusted Bell Schedule for all 3 high schools. As soon as the School Board approves our plans on Sept 22, we will be notifying parents in a common letter to district high school parents. In addition, we will be letting you know the expectations for Working Wednesdays collaboratively developed by all 3 high schools and Central Office administrators.
We will be meeting with Department Chairs this week to review all of the information as well as sharing it with each of you. What an exciting PD opportunity we now have: embedded same-subject team time to focus on PLC work and district and building goals.
