   Our friend and sister, Laura Lewis, passed away on November 3rd in Tampa, FL
   She was in the army, taught at Lenape H.S. for 35 years, was a Charter  member and strong supporter of Sigma  and stayed active with us throughout the years and all her travels, as did her friend and partner, DKG sister Carolyn Smith.
      Peg Madison reminds us, Laura " was truly an amazing lady with a contagious zeal for life and laughter. "
     We hold our memories of her in our hearts.

Sigma's Got Class

Tiffany will be sending you an invitation to join Google Classroom. If you are not a member, just click on the word Join.  You will then receive an assignment called Bio Sheets 2019-2020. After you open it, you will see a Bio form that was developed by International for our use.  Feel free to start completing the form. Your info will save automatically and you do not need to finish it in one sitting.  Give it a try and if you run into a snag email Annette.  Tiffany offered to use her classroom for our February meeting to work on completing the bios. ​

October Meeting

Our first business meeting of the year was held on October 23 at Jane's house.
We were impressed and learned a lot about Mindfulness from our program presenter.
*Suggestion for increasing membership: consider inviting your retired or close to retiring colleagues to join us. ​
