BIG NEWS!!!! I was offered a job today at East High School in Wausau, WI and I accepted! It's for 10th grade American Studies/Literature with one class of 12th grade composition/contemporary literature. They also want me to start up video production for them! I'll even make a few thousand more than I'm making here. School starts in WI soon, so I'll be hitting the road this weekend and start work on Wednesday! It's all happening so fast and I feel I'm in a whirlwind. While I'm thrilled to be able to rejoin Seth in Wisconsin and have my family together again, my heart is breaking to leave the students I love so dearly! Tomorrow is my last day at Southwest Middle School and I know there will be many tears. SBN kids, come by and say goodbye and know that I will miss you more than words can say!!
Love you all!!
-Mrs. Mela

Your teachers have spent many days preparing for your arrival-but have you prepared? Here's what you do students....RIGHT NOW...get off Facebook. Turn off the computer. Put your phone away. Do one last check of your backpack and go to bed!! Get plenty of rest and eat breakfast in the morning. I look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow. It's gonna be a GREAT year!

Wow! What a HUGE turnout for Orientation today! SBN students (periods 1,2,3,4) remember to always have a pair of headphones or earbuds with you this year as well as a 4GB or larger memory card. Period 7 you'll need headphones too but no memory card. Periods 6 & 8 just notebook paper and something to write with. Looking forward to a great year!
