One of the “rights of passage” for any high school student is homecoming! Held once a year, homecoming is a week filled with events, dress up days, floats….and, oh yes, the homecoming game and dance! As many of you know, I serve as the Junior Class Sponsor. This means that I help organize the juniors and get them ready for homecoming events…which will include our favorites: the powder puff game (in which the girls play football and the boys are the cheerleaders)! I also help the Juniors build a float….if you have ever watched the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, you may have been in awe of the huge floats. Last year the Sophomores (my class) one first place…and we intend to do it again!!!! I hope to see you all involved next week! We have 5 days of dress up themed days…..and a great end of week game on Friday and dance on Saturday! GO CHIEFS!!!!

Mr. Woods' helps prepare the Class of 2012's AWARD-WINNING float!

Santaluces’ Student Government and Key Club have joined forces to collect canned foods and other items needed for disaster relief in Haiti. If you would like to contirbute, drop a food item by 8220 (Student Government). For any questions, see Mr. Woods. See my previous posts for how you can also be of assistance.

LET’S ALL LEND A HAND!

So….I have been trying to get our class blog up and running. Today is my birthday, and I am spending it trying to get some work done — teachers live such an exciting life!

Our new class blog will have a whole lot of neat features. One of them is “Twitter Updates”. You will be able to use twitter to follow what is going on in class. I will RT (retweet cool, educational-related stuff).

I’m having a few glitches, so I think I will call it a night and try again tomorrow! I guess I have a little more to learn.

Welcome to Mr. Woods’ Blog. This will be an interactive discussion. All posts are moderated by Mr. Woods.
