A cycle competency reports are just about done. Thank you all for having your grades ready and dealing with the disappearing rankbook!
Based on feedback from staff there have been some tweaks made to the competency levels. This is what will be being used for this round of reporting, but it is by no means set it stone. If you have suggestions please make them!Crystal Paluzzihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16347093826960015345noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6750989082804844571.post-77785238401804225522013-01-04T11:42:00.001-05:002013-01-04T14:27:41.488-05:00Tech help with the Biggest Loser CompetitionThanks to Colette, SSVT is on its way to becoming a healthier, svelter, workplace (we hope...)!

Creating a Class web site is an easy way to accomplish this task. Having a site for your course will allow your students (and parents) to see what the homework is, download worksheets, etc.
