Congratulations are in Order
Four of the Buccaneers played for the Little Falcon team that just happened to win the Championship Game. Congratulations to these young men on their great accomplishment. I know that Coach Jernigan is ready for you guys to add to Norwayne’s team next year and the coaches at CB Aycock are looking forward to your continued growth. It takes a tremendous amount of dedication to be the best at anything so we celebrate these successes.

Yesterday we took a test on Chapter 4 of our Vocabulary Workshop series utilizing our eInstruction system. It makes things so much easier for me not to have to grade 60 papers (times 50 questions each is a lot of grading) and its so much more fun for the kids. From their comments and their elevated energy levels, I know that eInstruction is making a difference at NMS.
We read the first two chapters of the On My Honor book and I think the reception was extremely positive. Lots of stories were shared about friends who are more like Tony (wild, crazy and more adventurous) and Joel (conservative, calm, and rational). The kids discussed which parent was more protective and which one was easier to get what they wanted from. I love to read with students when they identify with the characters and the story. Ask some leading questions that force them to step out of the “Fine” and “Ok” answers. The kids have so much to share.

Thanks for the latest update. I will definitely ask questions. Wyatt seems to really like eInstruction. It's the wave of the future!
