Hi Just had a meeting where we were told that the system is going to start "learning walks" soon. We were told that Providence teachers are doing/having these and "love" them. Any Providence teacher comments?

I am a contacting you from England and I wonder if you could help me.
Could you please tell me, do teachers write summer end of year reports to parents in your country.
If so, what format are these in and do they reflect the entire years subjects taught or are they a more general summary of a child’s year and achievements.
Many of you may be in the same position that I am - left with a little bit of extra time during the summer and slightly underpaid throughout the year :) . I have found a terrific company that promotes a personal and environmental wellness line while compensating you for using their products and introducing them to others. It is NOT multilevel marketing! The company follows a consumer direct marketing approach while providing customers with safe, nontoxic, environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional household products.

Thank you for your time & interest, Carrie Lynn Bailey Counselor, Grayson County High School
