Housekeeping

A few tidbits to start the week...

• The glorious blue envelopes from the business office should have arrived in many mailboxes last week—which means that tuition is due!  If your LS children have "used" your stamps as stickers, you can walk your envelope to the kind folks in Academy Hall and they will be happy to relieve you of your burden! 

• The Division Heads will be presenting at the next PACA meeting, this Wednesday, December 12th at 8am in the Dining Hall.  Breakfast will be provided by the PACA Board.  Come and join us and hear what is happening in LS, MS and US!  

• A couple of links from the world of education that might be of interest:

Is college becoming irrelevant?  Lots of controversy about this one from the New York Times: Saying No to College

The deal with My BackPack

Greetings from your slacker PACA blogger.  

Several weeks ago, we had a great post from Kevin Dubenion on some of the capabilities of Moodle.  We had lots of nice feedback on that post and it got me thinking about another electronic portal that we have going on at CA: My BackPack.
