The Summer Basketball Camp Flyer's are in the Middle School Office.

High School P.E- All lockers will need to be emptied out in the locker room by the end of the year. The custodian staff always sanitize the locker rooms for health reasons. I will be cleaning out the lockers no exceptions. All students will be taking and an exam in P.E class. Dress and participation are still necessary as we finish up the year!

Advance and General Shop- The focus for the last week and a half will be to finish up all projects!!!!!
I also need to get everyone to pay for their project and get it home!!! There will be exams for everyone.

There will be a boys basketball camp this summer for grades 3rd - 8th. Look for info coming this week. I apologize, but I have been busy the last 6 weeks.

General Shop - Finish up all night stand projects, get them paid for and home. That is my focus from now until the end of the year. A reminder that all night stands are $75.00 and please  make checks payable to " McBain High School.  Students who are done with their night stands need to 1. help someone, 2. do homework, 3. or build a project to finish the year with or something  to work on in the fall.  Students need to do something from the list of three up above or their grade will go down.

Advance Shop- There are a lot of Advance Shop students who need to settle up on their projects. My number one goal is to get all projects finished, paid for and home!!!!!!  Seniors need to come back and get their projects they left behind. Like the General Shop students - students need to help someone, do homework, or start a project for next year.

High School PE. -Lockers need to be cleaned out before the end of the year. ALL LOCKERS NEED TO BE CLEANED OUT REGARDLESS IF STUDENTS PLAN TO LIFT OR  WORK OUT THIS SUMMER. THE CUSTODIANS WILL BE CLEANING AND SANITIZING THE LOCKER ROOMS THIS SUMMER.  Students need to remember to finish the year strong. Get dressed, be on time and participate!!!!!!!

Last week for Seniors! It's been a great year and a lot fun!

Advance Shop/ General Shop-  The main (3) focus points for the remainder of the year will be getting every ones project completed!!! (1) That means constructed, sanded, stained and sprayed three times.
(2) All projects need to be paid for before they go home. (3) Get every ones project home, arrangements made.

Students who are finished with there project need to use the hour productively. Do (1) homework, (2) help someone with there project or Mr. Koopman, (3) Make a project they can finish next year.

Students will not be allowed to go to the lounge, weight room etc. The expectations are all students will stay in the room.

High School P.E - It will be a busted up week!! Wednesday and Thursday the gym will be unavailable because of Senior marching practice for graduation. Students just need to be in class on time, dress and participate.

Students need to finish and pay for projects!

Seniors congrats you only have 10 days left!


Advance Shop: Getting projects done is top priority for Seniors!! This means getting them paid for and home. The focus this next (2) weeks will be finishing up senior projects. Everyday from now until the end of the year students will need to work everyday with a focus on getting one thing everyday,


 General Shop: Again getting projects done is top priority! Most General Shop students have completed their night stand and a few students a have made some smaller projects as well. In fact I believe there have been some excellent night stands make this year with students using different types of wood to create a contrast. However, there are still some students who need to finish up their night stand and that will be my focus. Cost for all night stands is $75.00 and checks should be made out to McBain High School.


Reminders!

Those students who are done need to bring homework to do in class, use the time wisely! They also could help other students finish their projects. 

Sitting around being disruptive or leaving class will have an effect on their grade!


High School P.E-  Students exercising and participating in class is the main goal and focus! Some students who are doing poorly grade wise in class can directly relate it to ( being tardy, not dressing, and/or participating). An "A" is absolutely obtainable for everyone if they do the above requirements.

Advance Shop- " Well the school year is down to "15" days for seniors and "34" for the rest of the kids."Again my main goal is to get everyone's project done, but it has to be functional and look good besides being done! Once your son/daughter has their project done they need to make arrangements to get it home and PAID FOR! So it is work everyday until the end of the school year.


General Shop- Again just finish up projects! That will be the focus for the remainder of the year. Most students are done with their night stands and they look good. I would like to get them all done before the end of the year. Just a reminder that the night stands cost $75.00. Please make checks payable to "McBain High School." 

* Students in Shop class need to pay for their projects prior to taking them home unless other arrangements have been made with Mr. Koopman. I keep track of all money students bring in to class and they will receive a receipt from me.

* I also would like a picture of every one's project prior to it going home.


High School P.E- Be active and participate! Get dressed and be on time! That is all students need to do in order to get an "A".

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!

Parents: If your son/daughter is not doing well in shop class it is probably because they are not doing any work in class! SOME STUDENTS HAVE FINISHED THEIR CURRENT PROJECT AND NOW THINK THEY CAN SIT AROUND FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR! NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. Students can do "one" of the following"3" things to finish the year.

1. Help other students finish their project. 

2. I have small "projects" things I need to "finish" or 'fix" for other teachers or community members that students can help me with and maintain a good grade.

3. If they are not graduating they can start a project for "next year" which a few students have done already. That is if they plan to take woodshop next year.

EVERYDAY IS WORTH 20 POINTS AND THEY ONLY GET THE POINTS IF THEY "ARE ON TIME", "WORK" AND "CLEAN-UP".



Advance Shop- On Monday I will be handing out cost figuring sheets so everyone can figure out what they owe for their project(s).  It is time for Advance Shop students especially seniors to figure out what they owe and to pay their bill. Students for the rest of the week will be working on their projects. Or doing one of the above (3) so they get their points.

General Shop-The focus will be on getting all night stands done before the rest of the year. Most students have done an excellent job! General Shop also need to pay their shop bill as well. All nightstands cost $75.00.  


"All projects if possible should be paid for with a check made out to McBain High School."
Students can pay with cash. I also will give each student a receipt for any money I receive.



High School P.E- Students who are doing poorly in class "are not dressing, are tardy or don't participate!  The plan for the week is try and incorporate the weight room into the 1st hour P.E class on Tuesday's and Thursday's. Resuming the Physical Training of push-ups, sit-ups and running.

Hope everyone has a Great Easter! Good Friday is this Friday the 18th of April. No school on Friday!
Monday is a 2 hour delay with Rambler Time!

Seniors are on the senior trip this week! Have fun! Only 20 days left of school for the seniors when they return.

Advance Shop- REAL SIMPLE! Seniors need to finish projects and pay for them before they leave. The school year is rapidly coming to an end. All students need to be thinking about finishing their project and getting it paid for before the end of the year. A reminder that all students will get receipt from me showing how much they have paid.  If possible have students pay with a check made out to "McBAIN HIGH SCHOOL".  STUDENTS WHO ARE FINISHED OR ARE GOING TO FINISH WITH THEIR PROJECT PRIOR TO THE END OF THE YEAR STILL NEED TO WORK ON SOMETHING. IT COULD BE HOMEWORK, HELPING SOMEONE ELSE OR MAKING ANOTHER PROJECT.  Not just sitting around doing nothing!

General Shop- Like I've said before there are some nice projects being made ( night stands)!  Just like the Advance Shop students the General Shop students need to get their project done,paid for and taken home.  Just a reminder that all night stands cost $75.00 dollars! If possible please pay with a check made out to" McBain High School". Students who are done with their night stands need to stay busy making another small project, making something they could work on next year if they plan to take shop, or help me or someone else.

High School P.E-  Get dressed, participate, be on time and be respectful! That is all I ask for inorder for your son/daughter to get an "A". Students who are failing or doing poorly can not handle the simple "3" task above! Some exercise and some fun activities is the class.
