This was just emailed out to my advisory:
Dear Parents,
On February 12, the Academy will have a half day of school so that teachers may spend the rest of the day meeting with their advisees' parents. The purpose of those meetings is to have final discussions and to reach agreements regarding next year's schedules. I will be available starting at 1pm and I plan to remain available long enough to accommodate everyone's schedules. My co-advisor, Crystal Meunier, will also be available. At this point in time, I'm assuming she and I will meet with you together, but it's possible that she and I might be able to split and thus host more than one meeting at a time, if that works for you.
We have a wonderful advisory with fantastic kids. That will make it all the nicer to meet with you to help them plan for their futures.
Please reply to this email at your earliest convenience with the following information:
1) Proposed meeting time on 2/12 (half-our increments starting at 1pm)
OR
2) Alternate date and time (after school) if 2/12 does not work for you.
Slots will be filled on a first come first serve basis.
Have a great holiday season!
- Josh and Crystal

The website for the orphanage we'll be visiting is right here: www.chandlersky.org
Here what we recently heard regarding the most wanted items:
*********************************
The children are still out of school at that time and will love having your students here. The most important things that can be brought down are school supplies and used clothing for the children.
Specifically:
colored pencils
pens (red, blue, black)
markers
white board markers
permanent markers (sharpies)
back packs
school glue or glue sticks
glitter
fun art supplies
colored paper
Please no notebook paper or notebooks, we have to use a very different kind here and do not end up using them.
Anything fun that you can use with the kids while you are here.
*********************************

Our stay in Peru will be greatly simplified by every trip participants having an International Student Identity Card. The cards cost $25 each but the savings for this trip alone could easily be triple that amount.
It is, therefore, REQUIRED that you procure an ISIC for yourself. Internet procurement can take several weeks, so please begin this process immediately. Your task for this week (12/15 – 12/19) is to complete the purchase/registration process for an International Student Identity Card.
Full information about the cards, including where to get them, can be found on the ISIC page.
Please do not delay. Order your card this week.

1) We are leaving at 9am this Saturday (11/22) for our trip to Montreal. Please wear comfortable, warm clothing that you can walk around in. Also make sure to bring $20 to cover your lunch and ice skate rentals. After arriving in Montreal at around 11:30am, we will eat lunch as a group and then have 2 hours of free time in the St. Catherine St. area. During the free time everyone will be working on a scavenger hunt. We'll then regroup at around 3pm and go skating. After skating we'll spend a little more time exploring and then head home at around 4:30-5pm. We should make it home around 7-7:30pm. One last thing: YOU MUST BRING YOUR PASSPORT. If you do not have your passport you MUST bring an ORIGINAL copy of your birth certificate and one piece of photo identification. As far as I know everyone is going on the trip except Cindy and Devon. I have permission slips from everyone except Kyle Schlosser.
2) Over a month ago I handed out an EF form that everyone was supposed to have signed by their parents and sent in to EF. I just got a mailing from EF stating at 8 of you have not sent that form in. If that form does not reach EF by Monday, 11/24 each person that has not sent in the form will be fined $50. Here is the list of people who have not sent in the form: Rahel, Beth, Zach, Jamie, Devon, Jarret, Kyle, Julia. Each of the people on this list need to come to Severance 21 to pick up a copy of the signature form, bring it home, have it signed, and then BRING IT BACK TO ME. If you have your copy of the form at home, have it signed and then BRING IT BACK TO ME. Everyone MUST bring me their missing form by Friday morning immediately after chapel. If your form is handed to me after 8:30am on Friday morning you will be fined $50.
3) The second payment of $1,005.34 is due by next Monday, 11/24. If you bring your payment directly to the business office, please let me know so I can mark it down in my records.
4) I am missing passport info from Devon and Jamie. Please let me know the status of your passports.
5) I still have no pictures of Zach, Devon, or Julia. Email me a picture of your face asap.
