Welcome Back!
All,
I hope that you had a restful and enjoyable holiday! We have about 4 weeks until Winter Break and the end of Quarter 2. This week, Christmasville in Rock Hill begins. Take time to enjoy the events in downtown Rock Hill with family and friends.
It's hard to believe we are halfway through the year. Let's finish this quarter strong!
Have a fantastic week
Sincerely,
Dr Persinski

Ruthless Equity--Join the Course!
I hope you enjoyed Ken Williams and his Ruthless Equity PD. It was entertaining, and it was REAL. As I stated before, this book has made a huge impact on my life as an educator. That's why it will be part of our book study over the next quarter or so. I know many of you are tired at this point in the semester, so you can choose to do the book now, over the holidays, or in the spring. It is up to you, as long as it is completed by March 29. The book is an easy read, and you will be able to reflect through the course discussions. 30 recertification points will be awarded.
