Connecting the Dots
Math Progression--Please View!
from Susan Dugle
Bindu shared the video below. It has a great explanation of the addition/subtraction progression with visuals. ALL of our elementary math teachers, coaches and principals need to see it this week as many of them are currently teaching a unit on counting, addition and subtraction. It is important for each teacher to understand the whole progression, not just their portion.

Letter from MLCHS Football Coach, Jerry Lucas
Ms. Burkhardt,
Thank you so much for allowing our young people the opportunity to spend some time with your kids/school! It was a wonderful experience for them and myself! You have a beautiful school and it was evident from the moment I entered the building the tremendous culture you have created for your kids and the excitement that’s been built around school pride and learning! I was truly impressed with the entire experience! I could tell immediately that your staff cares about your school and kids and they have bought in to everything you are doing at Southside Elementary!
Thanks and have a great day!

High Attendance Day is Tuesday!
from Santina Plottner
Tuesday, September 20 is High Attendance Day in Kentucky! Please remind your students on Monday that if they come to school on time (they cannot be tardy) and stay all day on Tuesday, they will receive a coupon for Free Choice Friday, where they can choose to wear pajamas or a hat to school on Friday Sept 23. Mrs. Plottner will place coupons in your mailboxes. You can choose if you would like to pass them out to students at the end of the day Tuesday or if you want to wait. There is a place on the coupon for the student to circle their choice and to turn it in to you on Friday. We will also announce the classes with 100% attendance (no tardies) on the announcements on Tuesday afternoon.
If you have questions, please let Mrs. Plottner know.
