I talked with Ms. Altman about NAHS for this year. Since Waring is kind of a bust, being that she's only here for first hour, and McMillan is opting out again, Ms. Altman is replacing Dimmer as our leader. Which means that there will be less scatterbrainedness. Things are going to get moving really fast, I just want you to be aware of that. There will be a meeting for the officers only after school Thursday, September 16. There will be pizza :). It will be concerning our organizational skills and getting everyone on track so we can run smoothly and be less confused and frustrated. We'll also talk about a bunch more stuff too. It will be right after school and you can go as you please, but make sure to come. Recruiting will take place essentially whenever we decide after that meeting, but of course this meeting comes first! I understand that the posters were made with lots of care and effort, but will need to be changed. Since I don't know what they look like, you all can try to fix them the best way you can. If they can't be fixed and need to be done again, I'm more than willing to offer up my house to work on them, and we can start over on the back, just bring some coloring supplies if you have them. I have some stuff but it's kind of limited.
Anyway, to reiterate:
MEETING:
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 16,
2:30PM, IN THE DIMMDEN
Another thing, I've changed some settings on here so that if someone makes a new post, everyone will be emailed about it, so there's less of this running around and asking, or begging people to check here. There is an option to also be notified if someone comments on here, which can be good if/when a thread is started in the comment section. If you want to be added to that list, of course, leave a comment. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO RECEIVE AN EMAIL UPDATE WHEN THERE IS A NEW POST, TELL ME THAT TOO. I'm trying not to infringe on anyone's personal space or anything, it's just part of that organizing that's going on.
Also, you may now notice there is a little mail icon at the bottom of the posts. This will allow you to email the post to someone, in case they're not aware of updates or there's something cool and relevant you'd want to share. Though, I suppose you could send them a link to the page, I just thought I'd give you that option.
we painted the posters. i need to be reimbursed for all that by the way. i can bring the receipt for the meeting...does anyone know where the money from last year got to? i bought a bunch of paint because we're going to need to make signs and stuff throughout the year anyways, and dimmer was out at the end of last year. im sure we could redo them but it was an effort of a few hours, and im not sure who's willing to put in the effort all over again.
ReplyDeletealso, i dont know whats going to work out best for the meetings, because so many people seem to have after school conflicts.
btw the focus with the posters was to make them artsy. not just typical writing words on a colorful piece of paper that anyone can do.
ReplyDeleteNo, I'm not sure where the money is. I don't know if it's still in that lock box or if there's a bank account. Ms. Altman is checking into that, but yeah you will be reimbursed as soon as we know where the money is. We should have roughly $300 in the account already.
ReplyDeleteYeah and after today I see the posters are kind of a bust. Like I said, we could try again, if you're all willing. I'll know I'll make some posters at least, so there's something.
I know school just started and nothing's very certain, but at the meeting we'll figure out a best day. If anyone can't go to the meeting, leave a comment here, or write it down and give it to me or liz at some point during school. I know that I have to babysit Wednesdays and Thursdays usually, and I need to be home by 3:30 if I have a ride, or I need to be picked up at 3. So those days would be kind of tight to work with. Not impossible, just time conscious.
All right. Seems good. I have work at 330 on various days of the week-no set schedule. So before school really does work better for me but if after works better for more people, then it is understandable of course. I can try to switch my days if the issue comes up.
