Twas' the week before Winter Break

This week our school will be full of excitement! Children who are counting down to Santa and educators counting down to Christmas break (smile)!
Thursday evening we'll have our Holiday party at Mrs. Esarey's home. Please let me know if you are attending so I'll have an accurate number when I go shopping.
Enjoy this week:)

Courageous Conversations

Thank you for listening, speaking, reflecting and sharing of yourselves today. Mr. Padron, in a conversation I had with him after our meeting, admired our courageous conversations and the respect that was shown towards one another.
I truly appreciate you all!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

We only have two more weeks until our Winter Break!
I encourage you all to keep the end in mind when the days seem long.
We've made it through almost half of the school year (smile)...can you believe it?
Once we return from our two week break it won't be long before the end of second quarter.
Keep pushing forward!
Keep it positive:)

From the sound of it...teachers want to hold teachers to higher standard

We had some eventful conversations at our TCT meetings.
I would like to address some of these concerns whole groups.
We will hold a faculty meeting in lieu of TEAM meetings on Tuesday after school.
Enjoy your Friday!

Happy Thanksgiving Memminger!

I just wanted to wish everyone a very happy, safe Thanksgiving break! You all deserve the break.
Enjoy your family and friends. If you are driving out of town please be careful and drive cautiously.
See you back on Monday!

Thank you!

Dear Staff-
On days like today I have to remember why I do what I do. Being a principal is tough. Period.
No matter how many degrees you have nor how many years of teaching and leadership experience you have under your belt this is a job like no other.
But even on the most challenging of days two things still put a smile on my face: the students here at Memminger and my wonderful staff members.
I want to thank all of you who are supportive and encouraging.
Your kind words matter.
As we approach the season of giving thanks I wanted to take the time to say thank you.
You mean so much to me and I'm proud to be your leader.
Thank you for all you do!
Dr. N
