       Fourth day of Distance Learning—Go The Distance

If you are having a tough time giving things one more try, read this:

“I have not failed.  I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

Thomas Edison 

Edison was a partially deaf inventor who developed many devices in fields such as electric power generation, mass communication, sound recording,motion pictures, and of course—the lightbulb! 

Happy Birthday to Mrs. Peterson!

Schoology is having issues keeping up with the demand of use.  Ms. Johnson has a great idea:

1—       Early in the day, download your Schoology assignments for the day.

2—       Complete the assignments and save. (You don’t need Schoology to do this step.)

3—       Later in the day, upload them to Schoology when the platform usage is lower.

Students:  Please go to your Ramp Up Course first thing, find the question for the week, answer it, and submit it!

This will be our way of recording your attendance for this week.  Please complete today, if you didn’t do it Monday.

Congratulations! Tracy Biology Club has finished in FIRST PLACE in the Show Us Your Mussels Challenge!

All seniors please check your Senior Information course on Schoology for a message from Mrs. Vondracek.  

Farewell to our Foreign Exchange student  Issaree (Minnie) Chaipramote!  Her AFS program is returning her to her home in Thailand this week.  We wish her the very best.  We will miss you Minnie.

Parents and Students:  Please visit the school’s high school website page and read the TAHS Parent Distance Learning Q & A.  This will help you prepare for Monday, March 30.

Homework can be submitted through Schoology, taking a picture of it (make sure you have the margins showing) and email it to your teacher, or give to the meal delivery bus/van or place in drop boxes (HS Door #4, Elem. Door #1, Milroy School, and Walnut Grove – 341 Fifth St.)  Library books can also be left with the meal delivery bus/van.  Paper copies need to have student name and teacher name.

If you don't have internet access at home other than the wi-fi on your cell phone, please email your social studies teacher stating that, as soon as you possibly can.  Pass the word.  This will help us accommodate you on potential distance learning days.  Thank you.

Please remember to take care of yourself by doing the following:

--get plenty of sleep.

--do some type of physical exercise—walking, yoga, a work-out video, a fun dance video—anything that gets you moving.

--do something to help someone else.

--try to keep a normal schedule, go to bed and get up every day at the same time.

--wash your hands often.

--if you don’t feel well, isolate yourself from others.
