A tornado in North Branch!

That's right, our own piece of weather history, a bit too close to home for comfort. Early Wednesday evening, a tornado apparently hit the north-eastern edge of the North Branch Middle School, damaging the roof and causing the building to be closed indefinitely.

See below for links to news stories and pictures.

Open House

Open House is Wednesday September 2nd from 5-7 pm. Be sure to stop in and say hello before the school year begins. I look forward to meeting all of my new students!

If you are unable to be at open house, you can view the handouts by visiting technology class files link on the right side of the class homepage NBMS Technology Bytes and selecting the course syllabus.

The Blog for NBMS Technology Integration Classes

Welcome to the class posting blog for Mrs. Olson's Technology Integration Classes! On this site I'll post updates, class happenings, due dates, and other important information for students.

For fall 2009 students will need the following materials for class:
A Flash drive ~2mb recommended size
A folder to keep/organize class handouts
A positive attitude, creative thinking, and a willingness to work hard

The main web site for these courses can be found at NBMS Technology Bytes - additional information for the NB school district can be accessed by visiting the North Branch Area Public Schools web page.

Note - This class is highly dependent on students using online resources. Be sure to fill out the school district internet use forms and return them to school as soon as possible so students can get started on course materials right away. Thank you.


We'll see you in about a month!
