TJ SAC

Hey everyone!

Today was our third SAC meeting. Here are the meeting notes: https://docs.google.com/a/fcpsschools.net/document/d/1_3-ThBsb0daXF-5ZgtumfCnNSgvGAq2VxE49jIbjDqs/edit?usp=sharing

Also, we are meeting with Dr. Bonitatibus during lunch on Thursday. We will be discussing FCPS wide issues such as mental health, but we will also talk about TJ specific issues, such as the TJ website and perhaps bringing back telelearn days. If you have any questions or comments, we would appreciate hearing from you: https://goo.gl/forms/iigO9ou3X9yO9Sg73

As mental health is such an important issue, FCPS administration also wants to hear your take on mental health. If you want to express your thoughts or opinions, consider submitting to FCPS Student Voice, a new campaign launched to learn the concerns and issues of students. All submissions are viewed directly by the school board, and this is a great chance to get your voice heard.
