           Friday Focus Happy Friday! I hope everyone has had a great week.  I will be out of the building again today. I will be in Des Moines so Tanner can swim in the Iowa Senior Short Course Championships.

I hope to store grades sometime in the next 3 days when I am in Des Moines.  I have started to schedule department meetings for the next couple of weeks to go over course numbers for next year. Please also remember that requistions are due on March 16. If you are ordering any type of "office supplies", those will need to be sent to Amy so we can do one large order.  We are doing driver's education the same way as we did it last year. They will be starting class on Saturday, March...

          Friday Focus Happy Friday! I hope everyone has had a great week. The way the students were behaving, I would have thought we were getting 2 feet of snow.  Judd and Melissa are getting closer to having 95% of our students registered. I will be starting to send meeting invites out to departments to discuss registration numbers for 26-27. Also, please remember to start on your 26-27 requisitions. Please refer back to Mrs. Holzman's email regarding the format of the requisitions. If it does not meet what she needs, I'll need to reject it so you can redo it.  I am happy to announce we have filled our new PE, Head Strength position. Bryant Dutcher will be joining us to take on this position. He is a graduate of Buena Vista and is currently teaching at Sioux City East. Next school year, we are starting a new class called Bulldog Strength and Speed. We are strongly encouraging all of our athletes to take this course to get their strength training don...

         Friday Focus Happy Friday the 13th! I will be out of the building today, as I will be in Iowa City for the State Swim Meet. Tanner qualified in 2 individual events and he will swim prelims tonight. Tanner and Seth will be swimming their relays on Saturday. Saturday's races will be broadcast on KTIV-CW. As post-season wrap-ups conclude for our winter activities, we are officially shifting gears toward spring. For me, once spring sports hit, the school year seems to accelerate even faster. On the administrative side, student registration is nearly complete. Once we have the majority of students registered, I will begin scheduling "number meetings" to finalize our sections and staffing needs. AI & Legal Considerations: Protecting Student Privacy On Tuesday, Adam and I attended the SAI Legal Lab , where we took a deep dive into the legal considerations of AI. Our primary takeaway involves FERPA compliance and the platform you choose to use: Open AI Pl...
