Week 12: 11-1-2020

Good Evening Computech Tiger Families,

This is Principal Berrett, hoping you have enjoyed your extra hour today with the time change. We are now entering week 12 of the school year.  You can find this communication on www.computechstudents.com under the “Announcements” tab. This week we will begin on Monday with odd block schedule. Students will be attending periods 1, 3, 5, and 7 tomorrow, and then attending even block periods on Tuesday.

This week is our Red Ribbon Week. You can view the flyer below, or you can look for us on Instagram under go.ct.tigers.  Monday is shade out the drugs and wear glasses. Tuesday is wear red to keep the drugs from getting spread.
  
This week Fresno Unified is hosting an online School of Choice Expo in which students can learn about the various magnet and pathway programs offered within our schools.  You can learn about them by going online to www.fresnounified.org/schoolchoice2020.
Our School Site Council meets this coming Wednesday, November 4th at 6pm on Zoom.  The agenda and link to that meeting is provided with this communication by clicking here or you can view it below. 

A reminder that Tutor.com is available every weekday from 2:00 PM to 9:00 AM and 24 hours on weekends. Students can access the service by logging into Clever and selecting tutor.com. 

Our ASES After School Program is available through Teams each day between 2:45 and 5:30pm. Students can utilize it at their convenience. 

Students are able to check out books from the Library. There is a tutorial on the Library page of computechstudents.com demonstrating how to request books. Students can pick up books Monday through Friday from 8am-3:45pm. If you have questions, you can call or text our librarian, Mrs. Ward, at 559-549-3758.

Mr. Brown continues with our Tiger Lunchtime Lounge. You can join the fun by going into Teams, clicking on “Join or Create Teams”, and entering the code, zx8uc04.  Congratulations to our Halloween costume winner, Dixie Parker, who won a Me N Ed’s Pizza for best costume, and thanks to everyone who showed off their costumes last Friday.

As the weather changes, we would like to remind our students that we have a Tiger Pantry available to help with needed clothing, hygiene items, and school supplies.  You can access that on our school website by navigating to "For Students" and then to "Tiger Pantry."

Our office remains open between 8am and 4pm. If you are in need of support, you can call us at 457-2640. 

This week we find out the results of the Presidential election.  We encourage families to exercise your right to vote. We also ask that our students and families respect one another’s perspectives and decisions, and treat one another with kindness, regardless of the outcomes of the election, and find ways to bring unity rather than division, especially at school, were we value and expect an inclusive environment. In that spirit,  your quote of the week  from Jesse Jackson, “Inclusion is not a matter of political correctness. It is the key to growth.” We become better as we learn from one another’s perspectives and seek to improve individually and collectively, as a school, community, nation, and world. Have a Great Week and Go Tigers!
