Notes

• Welcome to September!
• The staff member that runs the Computer Gaming Club at EHS is talking about changing to an eSports league. One of the titles they are looking at is Super Smash Ultimate. Would any of them be interested in doing this as an eSport against other High Schools? As weird as it sounds this would be an extra curricular to put on your resume for college…
• Today is a “White” day at CTE, so no afternoon academic classes.
• Today is an early release day at EHS, so students with afternoon EHS classes need to go to lunch at 11:55, as your next class will start during our lunch.
• BFA is NOT starting their early release today. Here is their schedule (we received this morning) for Early Release days:
  • Sept. 15
  • Sept. 29
  • Oct. 13
  • Oct. 27
  • … etc. Every other week it looks like, same idea, leave CAWD at 11:55 when it happens, but we don’t have to worry for a couple weeks.
• Milton students who ride the bus home after school will need to be released early at 1:35pm. Please let them know they will need to catch the Georgia Bus on Wednesdays.
• Everyone is doing a much better job with:
  • Getting stations clean / chair pushed in at the end of the day.
  • Turning off our computers.
  • Getting Dailies in.
  • … not perfect, but moving in the right direction. Keep at it.
• Kenny and Siddhartha you get to go on an Amazing Adventure today at 1:20! Your tour guide will come to CAWD and get you.
• Just a cool image. The power.
• Skittles / Playdough? / Gummie bears.
• You mean, your boat doesn’t have tank treads? Pleb.

Pleb – noun – an ordinary person, especially one from the lower social classes.
