First, the Transition Times would like to acknowledge Davan for traveling to Portland to present at the DCDT Conference. Davan spoke in front of teachers and school personnel from all parts of the United States (one woman was from Guam) and shared his high school and Connections experience. He did a fantastic job and got a standing ovation at the end of his speech!
We have good news and bad news this week. The bad news is that Connections will be closed on Wednesday, November 11 in observance of Veteran’s day (all 4J Schools are Closed). Have fun Wednesday, be safe and street smart.
The good news is that we are bringing Alumni Afternoon back! You asked for it, you got it! Alumni Afternoon is a time where we invite the Alumni back to Connections and do a fun activity. What will we do? When will we do it? That is for you to decide. We want to hear your ideas. Contact Connections Staff for your suggestions for Alumni Afternoon. Let’s make it LEGENDARY!
Wednesday (November 11) is the only Connections Day off this week. All Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday advocates, seminars, and tutorials will take place as usual.
And it is still November, which means it is still track your spending month! Update your spending plan, and make sure you know where your money has been (and where it is going). It is a November to remember (your spending)!
