The Colorado Department of Education Staff Support Team (SST) completed its review today and gave a brief overview of its findings. We received commendations for our level of commitment to teaching and our students. We have a high level of professionalism and we are a welcoming bunch, open to suggestions.

Their recommendations will have two themes: narrowing our focus and planning for student success. I think I would have arrived at these conclusions as it is. I have been using simplify as a mantra for a few days, so it's great to see an outside source see the same thing.

Our anxiety level has taken a step down, so that's good news. The big rollout will be on December 10th when we will receive a detailed view of their changes. More to come I'm sure.

The fundraiser is tomorrow, so on top of this work load, we have all the arrangements for the sale to handle too. I'm whipped. Time for bed.
