The Week of January 26, 2015

Good Day and Good Week!

A lot is happening this week for our students.

 8th Grade News!
8th graders will be see a presentation called “Making College Happen!”, which is given by The California Student Opportunity and Access Program (Cal-SOAP) which is also the agency that provides the counselor/tutors for our after school program.  This will take place in student English Language Arts Classes on Tuesday January 27th and Thursday the 29th.

On January 28th in the 8th graders Science classes our Counselors will be passing out High School Registration packets and letting the students know about next steps.  

On February 3rd, Both Christopher and Gilroy High Schools will be on the Brownell Campus in Room 25 (Computer Room) to enroll our 8th graders into their high school courses.  We will have students meet with the high school counselors during their Math classes.  

***8th grade students who received D's or F's first Semester will be contacted 
over the next two weeks by our counselors for a family meeting to discuss what 
this means for promotion and options to turn it around in time 
for the end of the school year.***

On Friday we will be having our next Olweus Bully Prevention Class Meetings with the continuation of our discussions on Hot Spots on campus that are more prone to have bullying occur.  Last time we talked about the locker room and this week:
By the end of this session, students will be able to:
·       identify the types of inappropriate behavior at lunch time.
·       identify the motivations and social dynamics that come into play
