There is an ANIME CLUB meeting after school today in Mrs. J-W's room. We will be done by 5. Middle school and high school students welcome!
Clarke Middle School and High School teachers shared out positives about their 3rd Quarter peer observations . So cool to listen to all the positive conversations happening between colleagues in the LMC this morning. The pic displayed and posted here, is the collection of sticky notes the teachers use to post the positives in the faculty lounge so all can see.
Barring any more cancelled school days, the School Board approved the following changes to the 2018-19 school calendar.
