Late Assignments

Although additional time was given for students to complete the one-two day assignments, I am still missing a lot of assignments that were taken home to complete. I also have SEVERAL students who did not complete their Color Wheel Worksheets or T-Shirt Designs. Grades close for report cards on Friday November 2. That gives us just 2 weeks to complete any work.  I will be emailing parents over the next week to remind students to complete work. Additionally, I am planning on staying after school on Thursday 11/1 from 3-4 for anyone who needs access to supplies to complete work.  NO LATE WORK CAN BE ACCEPTED AFTER 11/2!!! PLEASE PLACE YOUR WORK IN YOUR PORTFOLIOS ASAP SO GRADES CAN BE UPDATED!!! Thank you!!

Grades closed Friday 10/5 for the mid-quarter (progress report grades). I still have several students who have not completed their T-Shirt design (grades 6 & 8) and/or Color Wheel Worksheets (grade 6). If you haven't finished yours- please take it home to do so and bring it back ASAP so that your grade can be adjusted in Power School. As always- I am available during lunch and after school PLEASE ASK!!

Digital Media

Are you a student who is interested in film, television, and digital media but unsure where to begin?  Are you interested in learning more about digital media and how you can share more information on the growing field?  If so, this event is definitely something you want to attend. The ConnectNext speaker series is a bi-weekly TED-like event that takes place at UConn Stamford and UConn Hartford campuses. Running from September through December, these small intimate talks connect professionals from Connecticut’s leading content producers to high school and undergraduate students seeking advice about their next steps toward a successful career as a designer, animator, filmmaker, and other exciting roles emerging within the digital media industry. Our October Stamford ConnectNext speaker is truly a dream follower. When Pixar's Monster, Inc. first debuted in 2001, Stefanie Toigo finally knew what she wanted to do with her life. She delved deep into the world of motion g
