McKernan's Notes

November is here, and the weather forecast for this week says it is going to be beautiful all week. We have completed almost 11 weeks of school and the year is going smoothly.

The HS staff spent some time last week revisiting their curriculum, what they teach, when they teach it, what the state expects us to teach among other things. With our enrollment getting a little smaller every year, we are studying our curriculum and looking at areas we can enhance. We want to continue all our programs and offerings we currently have even though our class sizes may be getting smaller.

Our sports teams have completed the Fall activities seasons. All our teams compete and play hard, it is always tough when you don’t reach your ultimate goal.

Our Scholar’s Bowl team competes this week and the All-School Play will be held in 2 weeks. One thing ends and another starts. Even though it gets hectic from time to time, I like the pace. I like to stay busy and even though we all need some down time, I think most of the kids like to stay active as well. Stay busy but make sure you stay healthy as well. Staying healthy seems tougher to do than it use to.
