Reminders:

 

 

  • Setting Stone will host a "virtual" Coffee House via livestream on their Instagram account, settingstonemag, on Friday, May 1st. To get prepped for that, they will host a shorter practice run on Friday, April 10th. The livestream will start at 7:30.

 

  • Is your child interested in CCP for Fall 2020?  If so, they must apply by May 1st. Please email your School Counselor if you have any questions!

 

 

  • From Mr. McWilliams: Mrs. McWilliams, the art teacher at Kramer, and I have created a youtube channel together, but it has her name at the top, because of google.  We just learned how to make fabric masks. Here is the link

I have a Google classroom page which students can join, each class has a link: 

 

  • The yearbook is still happening! Here’s what you need to know:
    • Pictures for the yearbook are rather scarce during this time as we can't go take any of the students.  Our yearbook publisher has a solution - https://www.replayit.com/#/home - You can use this website to upload pictures for consideration in our yearbook.  If there are any other pictures of your student at home you would like to send and don't want to use the service, please send them to yearbook@talawanda.org.  Thank you in advance for helping our students build the yearbook during this difficult time!
    • If your senior missed the senior picture deadline, there is still time to make sure the portrait ends up in the yearbook!  Email yearbook@talawanda.org with your portrait and the yearbook staff will make sure the picture gets into the yearbook!
    • Senior Ads are still on sale!  Please contact yearbook@talawanda.org if you would like to reserve your senior special place in the yearbook.  Payment and pictures are also due for Senior Ads by April 30th - pictures can be emailed or delivered to the main office and checks can be made out to Talawanda High School.
    • Don't forget to get your copy of the 2019-2020 yearbook by visiting www.jostens.com and selecting Talawanda High School from the yearbook menu.

 

  • Did you know students have access to FREE audiobooks and ebooks through the Talawanda Middle and High School OverDrive collection?
    • Students can download the Sora app on any device, or they can use the OverDrive widget on their Chromebook Abre page to access our digital collection.
    • Our collection of titles is an extension of Talawanda Middle and High School’s physical libraries.  The difference is students have 24/7 access to ebooks and audiobooks. It’s convenient for students to check out titles at home, on the weekends or during school breaks with no worry about misplacing a book or running up late fees – these digital titles automatically return at the end of the lending period!
    • We have been building our OverDrive collection and are excited to currently have over 1400 eBooks and 300 audiobooks!
    • When accessing the collection, student logins are the same as gmail account logins WITHOUT the @talawanda.org. Example:  
      • Username:  monica.greene
      • Password:  413090tsd
    • Please contact Monica Greene greenem@talawanda.org with any questions.
