We’re blushing!

Some days the “technology business” is so full of the challenges of day-to-day computer issues and user needs that we hardly have a chance to catch our breath. And then there are days like today when our e-mail actually makes us blush. A note of thanks is a refreshingly cool drink of water in the hot desert of technology! Thanks!

“Good morning.

I just wanted to thank Gayla, Cindy Bakker, and you as well for our new computers. They are great! Of course there have been some difficulties as we transition from the old to the new, but considering the time of year and all that is going on at school (CSE meetings, other computers you have to help others with, etc.), things have gone very well!

Thanks for all that you do. We couldn’t do our job without you!

Teacher Web Pages

The District Web Site has a new addition. Check it out! http://www.waltoncsd.stier.org Click on Classroom Web Pages. Jodie Day has created a great tool for her students and their parents. Also take a look at Carol Decker’s and Sal Salvia’s Web Pages. Patty Wood has also created a Web Page for the Townsend School that includes important information and dates. If you would like to have a Web Page let Gayla know and she will get you started.

Great Job Carol, Jodie, Patty and Sal!

Technology’s secret “fuel”!

It’s my first morning here at Townsend Elementary School; Monday morning… the usual challenges… but a discovery! On my way to an impromptu meeting with Mrs. Vogel following up on the iSafe work the Technology Committee is implementing, I spied a plate with two fresh “sticky buns”!

Pat’s Sticky Buns

As soon as our discussions concluded I made a beeline to the Cafeteria, where Pat R. greeted me with a tray of technology’s secret fuel: delectable, homemade cinnamon sticky buns.

I may not be able to plan on a sticky bun every week, but what a great way to start the week and our new schedule here at Townsend. Thanks, Pat!

Our Schedule

We will be implementing a new schedule for Townsend School begining April 1st.
Mondays
Tim will spend the morning
Tuesdays
Gayla will spend the morning
Wednesdays

Thursdays

We will be consistant with this schedule but it is subject to change.
