=Welcome to the Social Studies and Electives Wiki for Raines High School!=

(by the way, we need a new, catchy name for our wiki- edit away!)
I wanted to start a space for information to be shared by all of us, to gear us toward a paperless society in our own small way. The collegial sharing of information is beneficial to all of us, and most of all, to our students.

I know that each of you is teaching your tuches off, trying to get the students ready for their EOCs, MAPs, APs, AICEs, and other acronym-based assessments. My hope is that this will make our lives EASIER, not add "one more thing", and maybe even get us to the point where we can hold virtual PLCs. What do y'all think about that? Input, please!

I will also place links on here for our information for end of year- our calendar, summer trainings, end of year checklists, etc.... if you have important information, please add it, as well....

Well, FCAT scores have come in, now it's a matter of disseminating our data and determining where we stand. Summer has been chock full of training sessions for the coaches, so far- hopefully y'all are getting enough relaxing in for all of us! :)
