Skinner North Update

10/8/2021

​Good afternoon!  Hope everyone is having a happy Friday.  It has been a busy week around here.  I am seeing students learning and having fun.  Spirit week has been a blast!  State Representative LaKesia Collins was principal for a day and spoke to one of our 8th grade Civics classes and read to some of our first graders.  In addition, some of our construction projects are finishing including skylights in the gym, concrete repair, fire hydrant repair, and some painting.  Please read below for a few updates.
Remember Monday is Indigenous Peoples’ Day and we do not have school.  Learn more about Indigenous Peoples’ Day and its history at https://www.zinnedproject.org/campaigns/abolish-columbus-day/resources/.  In addition, two highly recommended sources are Morning Girl by Michael Dorris and Encounter by Jane Yolen. Both sources are powerful and lead to lots of dialogue.
Have a great day,
Katie and Derrick
