  • Today in Canadian History: February 4, 1858 - Gold is discovered along British Columbia's Fraser River; leads to gold rush. Langley, BC

Tomorrow: Essay Topic Draft Picks!  I hope you are as excited as I am. 
Meet in your 1st period class for attendance, then we will all migrate to the gym for the draft picks and some final words about filmmaking.


1. Ski forms are due Feb. 16


2. Permission to participate in House Video forms are due tomorrow, Feb. 5.  Without it, you will not be able to take an acting (extra or otherwise) in the film.  

3. Print off the course selection forms and have them signed.  Hand them in a.s.a.p.  I realize some students are still waiting for Career Cruising to switch your home school.  Not to worry.

ENGLISH: Over the weekend, I would like you to brainstorm at least 4 points for the first essay topic.  I realize we don't know what it is yet (so excited for the draft), but as of tomorrow, you will know.  Help Aria maintain a poker face.
