- End of year activities from Wayfinder
- Movement moments
From Tammy and Lisa:
Thank you Tim for supporting our dear North Star this year. We are excited to hear what your next years have in store for you as you launch into retirement! As we move forward to fill your shoes (no one ever will btw), we will be looking to have some type of internal process in the next few weeks. Stay tuned for more information.
Thank you so much for providing excellent feedback as we work to plan for next year. Please look for an e-mail from us early next week with the compiled information. There are two more things that we forgot to ask about- our district launch and our small group teams (the ones where you are to meet three times per year). Please take a moment to give us your two cents using this link on both of these by Wednesday. The sooner, the better for planning purposes!
Jackie will be communicating about box drop-off and where the COIC crew will be supporting as we work to begin to recycle our old materials. Please refer to past blogs for more info.
As you create your schedules for next year, please let staff know about Back-to-School nights before you leave for the summer. This will allow for the advanced notice that is within the new contract language.
