From February 20, 2015

We are entering the tough part of the school year. The next few weeks often put a strain on teachers and students (administrators too). I'm not sure if it is due to the fact that we are ready for warmer weather (I know I am after this week!) or if we are just ready for another break, but the end of February through March is always difficult for a school. Add to that the regular distractions of major testing like Work Keys and the ACT, scheduling for next school year, multiple events that disrupt the day or week and a change in athletic seasons and it begins to add up quickly. Just writing about all of it is enough to make me a bit anxious. The one thing that we do control in difficult times is how we react to one another and how we lead in our classrooms and in our building. Over the next several weeks, your support and encouragement of students and fellow teachers will be essential.  I strongly believe that we are on the edge of making even more progress at Greene Central, but any change is always most difficult just before it occurs. Keep your heads up and if you need support, please let us know. We're all in this together!
