Welcome to my educational blog!

This blog is a way for me to record my experiences as a teacher. I learn as much from my students as they do from me!

CCR's Next Week

CCR's (conferences) are next week.  I will be sending home a copy of the schedule by Wednesday September 25th.  Please look for that with your student.

Flex time has been a huge success.  This week we will begin the remediation portion of the Flex program.  If students are not understanding a concept in one of their classes they might receive a notice to attend a review meeting with their teacher.  If students have a GPA below 1.6, they will be invited to attended a "study hall" class with yours truly or Mrs. Reese.  We are hoping that students will want to attend the fun Flex activities and stay out of these overflow classes.

Mid-Term, Can You Believe It?

Well this week is mid-term.  Please review grades with your student.  It is important that the students know you are aware of what is happening at school and are involved in their school career.  Speaking of school career, we are planning the Fall CCR meetings.  I sent home a paper today with the students for CCR meeting sign ups.  Please look over that and send back with your student.

I will be at the Utah Mentor Academy meetings on Thursday and Friday of this week.  If you need to reach me, please email me at robyn.brown@ironmail.org.  I will be checking my email frequently and will get back to you as soon as possible.

Denim Day October 4, 2013

The Iron County School District has teamed up to raise awareness for breast cancer.  The district staff members will be donating $5.00 and wearing jeans and a pink shirt to raise awareness for this cause.  Five staff members of Cedar Middle School are breast cancer survivors.  Last year, we were able to raise $1,400.00 for breast cancer research.  This year, the ICSD has chosen to donate the money to Valley View Medical Center, breast cancer services.  All the money will help local women going through breast cancer treatments.  I couldn't be more excited to support our local women!

We invite parents and students to join us and wear jeans and a pink shirt on Friday October 4.  I will be selling Cedar Middle School breast cancer awareness shirts until September 20th.  They are $10.00 and I do have samples in the SPED office.  I can't wait for this amazing event!
