Have a great long weekend.
Thank a vet!
We spent some time on the MS schedule to improve flow, and we've achieved that lofty goal. These changes really help the flow of the schedule for 7th and 8th grade core subjects. The new sem 2 and MS groups sheets are now on the master. Please take a look since most changes are complete. I wish that I could make similar changes for the second quarter, but that won't be possible. We're making the schedule great again! OK, we're making it a bit better.
Observation notes
FYI - I just scheduled an observation using MLP. I used the correct date for the observation, but I used today's date and time for the pre and post meetings. This allows you access to the forms right away. If we use the actual times for the pre and post meetings, it limits access to those times, which is kind of strange in my opinion. If we can fix this little snafu, we will, but it's not a huge deal.
