YOUR TEACHERS ARE NOT THE MAIDS! Unfortunately, the middle workroom has been left in shambles a number of days. The equipment and materials in this room are expensive and are a privilege to use - not a right. Your lovely EAT teachers have high expectations of you, and cleaning up comes with the privilege of using this room. Those who can not clean up will be denied access to the workroom. Your goal - put smiles back on your EAT teachers' faces by keeping the workroom and America beautiful!

In addition, a superintendent has to set short and long term goals so that the district can move forward toward its vision of providing an excellent education for all.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 130%;">Listen to your teacher discuss field trip preparations. Here are some reminders:
 * <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 130%;">Buses will depart at 8:20 (11:30 for afternoon) from each home campus.
 * <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 130%;">You must be dressed in your professional business attire. Those not dressed for the event will not attend.
 * <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 130%;">[[image:images-47.jpeg width="133" height="133" align="right"]]Prepare a question to ask Dr. Brown or one of his cabinet members. Think about what you would like to know about him (or his cabinet members), their job duties, how decisions are made, their positions on current education "hot topics", etc.
