March 22-26 Is CENSUS IN OUR SCHOOLS WEEK
The District Board of Trustees of Sumter School District Two has passed a resolution declaring the week of March 22-26, 2010, as CENSUS IN OUR SCHOOLS WEEK. The schools will be observing this week with special activities and lessons.
With only 10 questions, the 2010 Census questionnaire is one of the shortest in history and takes just 10 minutes to complete. By law, the Census Bureau cannot share an individual’s census questionnaire responses with anyone, including other federal agencies and law enforcement entities.
Participation in the 2010 Census will ensure that your voice and the voice of our community count.
Our community is counting on you! The 2010 Census is in our hands!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Every ten years, the United States counts its entire population. The census is crucial to the protection of our community, resources, services, and civil rights.
During the 2010 Census, you will have an opportunity to help empower and strengthen our community by providing basic information about your household on the census questionnaire. Filling out the form only takes about 10 minutes. All the information that you provide will be kept completely confidential.
Do you want your voice heard? Your participation in this year’s count will help ensure that it is and that the needs of our community are met.

PROBLEM/SOLUTION
If you have Office 2007 at home, your student/guardian may have a problem-we have Office 2003 at Crestwood. The outstanding work that is completed at home will not work here at school. There is an easy solution to this problem. When the student saves the document they will enter a file name at the bottom of the dialog box. Under the file name, you will see the words "save as type" Use the down arrow beside the "save as type" box and select Microsoft Word 97-2003. Likewise an Excel document you would save as Microsoft Excel 97-2003. All of the files saved in this manner will work at Crestwood.
