Multicultural Fair

It is great to see how teachers and students are working together to have the best fair ever. Good job!

On Nov 21, the day of the Multicultural Fair, Arnulfo will have his normal schedule from 8-12 and 2-6pm. If you left any material for the fair at the resource center, you need to pick it up tomorrow Thu before 6pm or on Fri after 8am.

By the way, the stamps will be ready tomorrow Thu at 4pm at the Coordination office. Please, come pick them up (do not send any student to pick them up. Stamps will only be handed out to teachers).

Passports will be delivered at the Embassy on the same day of the fair. All visitors will have to visit the Embassy first. Please, do not accept visitors without their passport at your sight.

Please, REMEMBER THAT CLEANUP MUST BE DONE AFTER THE EVENT. THE PHYSICAL PLANT DIRECTOR EXPECTS THE AREA USED TO BE AS CLEAN AFTER THE FAIR AS IT WAS BEFORE.

IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO TAKE ANYTHING (e.g. tables, chairs, etc) OUT FROM ANY CLASSROOM OR OFFICE, YOU MUST RETURN THIS TO THE ORIGINAL PLACE RIGHT AFTER THE FAIR IS DONE.

We really appreciate your effort and help.

This is the one we told you about the last meeting we had before the beginning of the previous cycle. On Tuesday, november the 4th there will be training on how to use the panaboard in room 310 from 8 a.m. to 12 noon. The ongoing training sessions last 30 minutes. We cordially invite you to attend So that you can make the most out of your lessons in the future cycles by using this equipment.

The only thing you have to do is be there, room 310 any time in the morning according to your availability. Don't miss the chance to get familiar with panaboard.
