8-11-17 Student Mission Briefing

GRYPHON MISSION BRIEFING
For Friday, August 11, 2017 – N-day
School Mission – Boundless STEM: Learning & Leading
L&N Student Mission – #Own it!

School Ops:
·      Freshmen – if your last name starts with Jones – Wright you will come to the STEM Space (upstairs in Depot) for a class meeting during Advisory.  You will eat 3rd lunch.  Everyone else – check the attachment for your Advisory lunch and room number today.

·      Sophomores will get laptops back today during Advisory.  Juniors – you need to prepare yours, they will be collected on Monday and returned on Wednesday.  Seniors will be collected Wednesday and returned on Friday.

·      Students, did you know we have a social worker here on Tuesday and Thursdays from 8:30 – 2:30?  She can help you with community resources, shoe and clothing cards, hygiene items, and is just nice to talk to!   Don’t try to handle family problems on your own – reach out for the help that is here.  You can contact her through the front office, or email her directly at Kimberly.stooksbury@knoxschools.org

·      Are you quick on the draw? Do you like jeopardy? Then you might be interested in joining the L&N Science Bowl Team! If so, please complete the following Google form to receive additional information: https://goo.gl/forms/uKHA268S4mLVIccH3.

·      Want to join the L&N STEMpunks robotics team? They’re having an interest meeting August 18th 5:00-7:00 pm in the Commons! You can come and find out more about the team (bring your parents!) before signing up.

·      Interest Meeting for the L&N Cross Country teams (boys and girls) will be on Friday morning, 8/11, from 9:00 a.m. to 9:20 a.m. in room 207.  If you ride a bus in the morning just come as quick as you get here.

·      If you need help with your cafeteria number or your parents need to put money in your account, there is a place to do it online.  It is here.  If you need to apply for free and reduced lunch it is available online, go here.  If you need to do it by paper to take home to your parents, ask one of the ladies at the cash registers.  They will help you.  Please ask at breakfast time because it is less busy than at lunch.  You will eat lunch with your Advisory teacher.  A separate email will be sent that lists the lunch assignments.

Community  & Guidance Ops:
·      Be sure you are checking your schedule on Aspen before each class – your schedule can change even during the day!  We are finishing changes by balancing class sizes.  Stay informed!

Quote of the day from Oprah Winfrey:

What I know for sure is that if you want to have success, you can’t make success your goal.  The key is not to worry about being successful, but to instead work toward being significant – and the success will naturally follow.
