We had our first rehearsal last Monday and orientation afterwards to expand on what we are doing and how! Adults were able to meet with teams in areas they wanted to help (costumes, set, etc.). If you were unable to attend and have not gotten emails from me, please reach out Hesbensen@pps.net . I am finalizing the long game rehearsal schedule and that will be sent out by Tuesday.

See all your students Monday for our second act run through and intro rehearsal! Thanks for sharing these gems of humans with me!

Thank you so much to all the families who came to the Dec 7 meeting. We had some volunteers say they would be interested in working on 8th Grade Promotion and other committees. We also discussed the issues with harassment and bullying at Kellogg and how we can talk to our kids about being a positive influence at school. We will be working more on ways to support students and teachers. Please email kelloggmsptsa@gmail.com to be included in information going forward.

PPS has created a tutoring option for all students to access! The information is here for how students may access tutoring support through the new PPS partnership with VarsityTutors through their school Chromebooks.

Family Center helps parents get more insight into who their teens are friends with on Snapchat, and who they have been communicating with, while still respecting their teens’ privacy and autonomy. It's designed to reflect the way parents engage with their teens in the real world, where parents usually know who their teens are friends with and when they are hanging out, but don’t eavesdrop on their private conversations.
