Staff Members- Please keep Kim Zannetti and Laura Williams in your thoughts and prayers.  Laura's dad passed away on Monday after a lengthy illness and Kim's mom also passed last week following a relatively short illness.  Any additional support your could give these two colleagues would be greatly appreciated.  

PSAT/NMSQT - Thank you to all of you for your flexibility on Wednesday as we administered the PSAT.  Additional time was needed to conclude the test prior to dismissing students to lunch.  Your support and understanding were greatly appreciated.  Thank you to David Callahan for successfully organizing this assessment that required many details.  Also, thank you Kim Glessner for organizing and scheduling those needing accommodations.
