Hi Team,

I’ve just been reviewing the post/alerts and the teachers’ only calendar on the teachers’ only page, and I see that not only was the initiation of the review process not on the calendar, but the alert that you should have received about it in early December was not delivered.  I can’t ask you to do something on a schedule you knew nothing about!  I apologize for that, as well as any confusion you may have had.

I will have Lydia – our new receptionista – put physical copies in your boxes for your completion.  Remember, you are the reviewer for yourself, not me.

The deadline for these will be 20 January, which gives everyone a chance to get and complete the form.  You can download last year’s form to use as a worksheet, and there may be some  differences on this year’s version.  Please give them to me, or leave them on the front desk, on the keyboard.

Thanks,

Barn.

Hello Team,

We now have air conditioners installed in all but the basement studio.

For the upstairs studios, please take care, as I consider the installations preliminary and not the most secure.  I will make an effort to secure them better in the coming days.

Energy Efficiency

These units are not the most energy efficient, which was a difficult decision to make, based on keeping our costs down.  I ask you to use these not to chill the room, but rather to bring the room to a low humidity and manageable temperature state.  We are always working hard towards growing the school (getting you more students), and we are pushing towards getting out of the house and into a larger space.  This has been an ongoing effort, but we can only achieve this if our efforts are consistent on all fronts.  Controlling the air conditioning costs in is an area that you can be effective in, and in which I appreciate your efforts.  Thank you!
