posting of results

When I look on the partners map, I see scores posted for our partner school. I assume that these scores are for THEIR packages. There are no scores posted beside our school. We are #11 on the partners page, Jersey Shore Area Middle School (us) and Stonewall Jackson Middle school.

Mr. Lindgren, did you receive our scores for Stonewall's packages? (I think that these are the posted scores, but I'm not 100% certain.) Did you receive scores on our packages from Stonewall Jackson MS? Is there just a backlog in getting them posted - a huge job, I'm sure. Students were asking if they could see their scores on the website.

Can you comment on any of this? Thanks.

Last Call!

It's time to end this. For those of you who haven't posted your scores, get it done this week. If there is a problem in getting that done, just let me know. A million thanks to all of you that participated in the challenge. We had more than 5,000 students this year sending chips across the country. Watch the website to see when the Challeneg will happen again. I'm toying with doing it twice next year. The number of schools was very difficult this year. Maybe running it once in the fall (October-November?) and then in the winter (January-February?) would be easier. Your thoughts?

Have a great remainder of the year!

Huge Thanks to Charlie

I would like to take a moment and thank Charlie for the tremendous amount of work that has undoubtedly gone into the Challenge this year. Opportunities like these don't come around every day. My students had a wonderful experience with the Challenge. Keep up the amazing work! I look forward to collaborating with you on the Pringles Challenge and any other activities/ideas in the future!

The Scores are Posted!

Please take a minute to check out the scores. See if I've made any terrible mistakes. If there are any (and I'm sure there must be one or two!) let me know and I'll correct them. The easiest way to do that is to resubmit the spreadsheet, don't make me hunt through 400+ e-mails. Just tell me what's wrong, and I'll try to make it go away. There are still many blanks. Send the data as soon as you can.

Clear Skies (not here, we're buried),

I'm Back!

Greetings! I had a great time on "The Coast." We came back to the other Coast just in time to catch the eclipse. We got the cats back this morning, and I saw that I had 453 e-mail messages! I'll start to add your results to your pages. It looks like I have about 70 messages with scores from you. They shoul all be up by the end of the day tomorrow. We're getting a major snowstorm tomorrow, so I'm not going anywhere.

Clear Skies,

Charlie

Final Posting of Results

Greetings! Hopefully you're buried in packages, and amazed at the schemes and strategies your partner school used. If you post me your results by Wednesday of this week, they will be posted immediately to the website. We are on vacation after that, so don't look for anything to be posted until after the 20th. Speaking of the 20th, there's a total eclipse of the Moon that night. Don't forget to tell your students about it. It's tough for me because we're on vacation, but hopefully they'll remember.

Clear Skies (especially on the 20th),

Charlie
