MEDICAL EXPLORERS TONIGHT / LABOR AND DELIVERY

Hi Everyone,

TONIGHT: Medical Explorers - Topic is Labor and Delivery. 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
(please arrive early). Please sign in - Ashleigh from the a.m. class has the sign in sheet.

Extended Homeroom Tomorrow (GHS)This week we have a 30-minute Homeroom to allow seniors attending Las Positas a chance to meet with the Las Positas Admission Officer. All other students will have the opportunity to enjoy both the Pomegranate and an extended video announcement production. Homeroom will not meet next week, because of the CAHSEE testing schedule.

GHS: CAHSEE Testing 2/5 and 2/6 - your attendance is required for P2 on Tuesday, 2/5 at 12:35 until 1:45. Even though you not required to be at school on the morning of 2/5, I recommend you attend site in that morning as you would any other Tuesday. Some of you have the opportunity to go in early in the morning, perhaps to observe procedures. Not attending can be another setback if you are short on hours, so consider putting in 2-3 hours that morning. On Wednesday, 2/6, GHS students meet with me at 11:40 as per the schedule. Again, you may attend site if you have your manager/supervisor's permission to do so that morning. More CC hours for you! PLEASE MARK YOUR CALENDAR AND TALK TO YOUR SITE in advance and make arrangements for Wednesday morning if you plan to attend.
LHS: CAHSEE Testing 2/5 and 2/6 - No ROP Tuesday 2/5. If you plan to make arrangements to work at your site Tuesday 2/6 in the morning...INFORM ME FIRST, then proceed. I have morning students at several of the sites. WED 2/6: Arrive at ROP at 12:20.

CC HOURS: By the end of January, you should have 60-70 hours. (80 is the plan by 1/31/13). Please check the posting of hours and do the math...are you on course to meet the 180 hour requirement?

HOMEWORK DUE TOMORROW : Don't show up empty-handed!!!
