It was great to see all our students back at Hale for the 2010-2011 school year. I think for a first day it went very well. The busses seemed to be on time at school for the most part, lunch went well, all the logistical things you hope for. The teaching staff here at Hale is of course second to none, so one we get beyond logistics the instruction we know will be great.
The one challenge we face this week is the heat. Hale does not have air conditioning in the classroom area and they can get warm, especially on the second floor. We are doing the best we can to mitigate things and will continue to do so for the rest of the week as there is much work to be accomplished. The long range forecast for next week looks like we will have temperatures that are a bit more conducive to a learning environment.
The bottom line is we are off to a great start!

Welcome to The New Blog
I really do believe communication, two way communication, is essential to any organization, especially a large one like Hale.
I know during the last year feedback, thoughts and suggestions made by staff, students and parents alike made a big difference to me. I incorporated many ideas that did not originate with me into successful events here at Hale. I hope this blog is a way to keep you informed, and ultimately me informed so we can continue to benefit from each other's input.
I know I am looking forward to tomorrow, seeing our students for the first time in 2 months! I had a great summer personally and hope everyone else did. The weather was fantastic, kind of a make up summer for last year's less than ideal weather. I spent a lot of time on the golf course, and for one of the first times ever I think I went a season without getting rained on. I wish it was going to be a little cooler for the opening week but we will make the best of it and will soon be longing for warmer weather.
