2nd try...Prepping for Punxsutawney Phil now with the CORRECT link...update

With little to look forward to in regard to upcoming sporting events, I find myself in more anticipation of whether the weather will or will not be favorable based on Phil's ability to see his shadow or not next Tuesday.  While the weather has not been typical January fare, it has still contributed to discomfort for some and we have still seen the typical increase in seasonal colds.  Not sure what Phil will have to say about all of that.

On a more serious note and in regard to illness, we received an important notice from the Westford Health Department which I have now made available in the following CORRECTED link (sorry for those of you who already saw the WA letter twice):


Another very important link included in this week's update is included in preparation for the transition process for 8th grade students as they begin planning for next year.

Families of current 8th grade students please take the time to access and read the following letter from Westford Academy Principal, Mr. Antonelli, regarding their upcoming Curriculum Information Night scheduled for February 10, 2016:


As part of the transition process, representatives from WA will be visiting Stony Brook 8th graders on February 11 to present information about the upcoming course selection procedures and opportunities available to students at WA.  Additionally, the portal to view teacher recommendations for WA courses is scheduled to be open in both iStudent and iParent by 2:00pm on February 12.  8th graders will be able to discuss recommendations with teachers when we return from the February break and can enter their elective choices that entire week between February 22 to February 26.  WA counselors are working closely with Ms. Ewing here at Stony Brook to help guide students through this process.

Enjoy your weekend!

Chris
