August 29: Student Check In, Agendas, and Advisory Choice

Student Check-In: Ask if students have any questions; how Liberty Hour is going; how their classes are; how are their grades.

Liberty Hour Movement begins next week: Encourage students to use their time both in class and Liberty Hour to maximize their school success.

Student Agenda: Distribute student agendas. Spend some time going through the agenda and highlight key areas. Encourage students to use their agenda on a regular basis.

Advisory Choice: Go to advisory choice tab and choose any activity.
If you have added a new student or two, perhaps a name game would be a good idea.

Welcome, Blue Jays!

This is your Advisory space for your academic career at Liberty High School.  Your advisory teacher is different than a classroom teacher in that there is no grade for this class. The advisory teacher will support you in a variety of ways from academic support to building relationships as well as connecting you to community involvement and events.
