Dear Blake Families,
I hope that everyone has enjoyed a wonderful end to the summer and is excited about the start to the school year! I am resending two documents pertaining to the iPad Initiative...
iPad Initiative Update for Blake 8-14-14
iPad Initiative Student User Agreement 14-15
Please do not worry or stay up all night configuring the iPads for the first day of school - we fully anticipate that some students will not have everything set up, and we will work with them to iron out the wrinkles. The first few days/weeks are a little bit messy and we need to 'welcome' the mess!
During our opening faculty meetings we took some time as a staff to outline the school year and our hope for our students. To help get a wider lens, I posed this question of our staff: What are the attributes, characteristics, and core values of a Blake Middle School educator? I have copied for your reference a visual representing the collective answers, reflecting the thought and care that we bring for your students...

We are all looking forward to an exciting year!
Take care.
