Happy Saturday!
I hope everyone is enjoying a relaxing, beautiful Saturday!
Just a quick reminder that I will be away for the entire week with our 8th grade students as we travel to Washington, DC. Randy Ragsdale will be in charge while I am away. You may have a look at the many exciting things going on in DC by checking out my parent blog or by looking at the Trinity SchoolTube site each day.
Have a wonderful week!

Faculty Notes
Happy Friday!
I hope you have had a good week, and I wish for each of you a spectacular weekend!
Strategic Planning Session
Trinity Presbyterian School is embarking on a season of planning for the future of our school. This process includes an intensive strategic planning event to take place at Trinity Presbyterian Church next Monday-Wednesday. Some of you have been asked to participate, and I will be involved as well. This will keep me out of the office for the first three days of next week, and I will be tied up with this process into the evening each day.
Please refer any issues, etc., to Randy Ragsdale during my absence.
John Gonleh Chapel
Rev. John Gonleh of The Refuge Church here in Montgomery will be here to speak to our middle school students in an extended chapel service this coming Thursday, January 27, 2011. The chapel will run from 8:45-9:45 a.m. in the Old Gym, and we will run on a modified schedule that day. Most classes will be about 40 minutes long.
John and his wife Bessie literally ran for their lives in their war-torn African country. In the process of coming to America, they lost two children, and could not bring their other two to live with them for several years.
Theirs is an inspiring story of survival and of trust in Jesus Christ. You won't want to miss it!
8th Grade Washington Trip
Our annual 8th grade Washington trip is upon us! The 8th grade teachers and I will be in Washington, D. C. with 68 of our closest friends the week of January 31. Randy Ragsdale will be in charge of the middle school during my absence.
I have asked the teachers, parents, and students to pray specifically for the following, and I am asking you to pray in this direction as well:
1. For good weather
2. For good health
3. For safety
The Washington trip is one of the most memorable experiences for our students during their entire journey through Trinity School. Please layer us in prayer as we set forth to make a difference in the lives of these kids!
Grades and Parent Contact
As always, I encourage each of you to keep the lines of communication open between yourselves and our parents. Remember, we are working to partner with them in the education of their children. To that end, please keep grades updated on Edline, and contact parents at the first sign of trouble. Parents like to hear the good news too, so let's not forget to praise our students when they do well!
Tech and Learning
Our friends over at Tech and Learning have put together a great list of the top 25 Web 2.0 sites for educators. You may link to the site by clicking here.

Happy Winter Weather Day!
There's nothing like a little ice to completely shut down a city in the Deep South!
I hope you have enjoyed your unexpected day off. Some of you, no doubt, are resting up for the big game tonight. Good luck to your team (whichever it may be!!).
Let's keep in mind a few important announcements as we prepare to head back to school tomorrow:
1. We will be on Activity Schedule this Wednesday, January 12, for a 6-12 Chapel in Willett Hall
2. Please plan for a special Chapel and activity Thursday, January 27. The specific schedule times will be outlined in a separate communication within a couple of days.
3. Please remember to keep your grades updated, and contact parents at the first sign of trouble.
Have a great week!
