The End...and the Beginning!

Hi Everyone,

Tomorrow is the last day we are together before internship begins on December 1st. I know it's been hectic, but don't forget I am very proud of all of you for taking on this challenge. For many, it is a new experience - the world outside school and home. I know you'll all do very well.

TOMORROW'S SCHEDULE: GHS here at 8:00 a.m. LHS here at 10:20 a.m.
DHS/FHS here at 1:05

FOR TOMORROW: Please do some Internet research by typing in the following on your favorite search engine: Pros and Cons Universal Health Care

In order to get full credit on the assignment tomorrow, you'll need to express your responses/opinions in clear, well-written paragraphs. Each paragraph will be three to five sentences.

Well, I'll see you tomorrow. Please anticipate your needs and mine regarding any last minute questions or concerns you have and I'll be happy to help you.

Pros and Cons Regarding Universal Health Care

Hi Folks,

I am looking for opinions and good write-ups for the assignment.

Greetings to All

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for being good "critical thinkers" today. We're covering important workplace skills this week and we will continue tomorrow. We will also cover medical insurance basics. Please ask your parents what type of insurance coverage you have...who is your physician? Who is the primary provider of insurance in your household? Is there a co-pay for E.R., office visits, Rx? Does anyone in your extended family have Medicare? No need to share this info, but it is very useful as you become adults to know about medical insurance as well as insurance for other components of life.

I NEED SITE CONTRACTS! If you have not turn yours in, please turn it in right away. Thanks!

CLASS PICTURE on WED 11/19 - Bring (or wear) your uniform shirt, pants, badge and lanyard.

LHS - Special finals schedule with me on 11/20 and 11/21. GHS - Schedule confirmed.

DHS/FHS normal schedule.

Take care and I'll see you tomorrow.

We'll do a lot of prep work next week and get ready to go out. Have your uniform, lanyard and badge on the ready for class pics!
