Monday Morning Memo - Week 24
2/26/18 - Black History Month
Dear Poupard Staff,
Welcome back! I hope everyone had a relaxing week off. It's crazy to think that we're nearing the last third of year. This last third of the year provides us two long stretches of time with fewer interruptions for all the learning that needs to occur. Also, this last third continues to provide us all an opportunity to advance our own learning. You can do this by visiting classrooms around the district, attending workshops at Wayne RESA and sharing topics of interest with me directly.
Lastly, I'm beginning to wrap my mind around some planning and preparation for next year. Over these next couple weeks, please come speak with me directly or shoot me an email expressing your initial thoughts of how you envision your role next year at Poupard (grade levels, teams, committees, etc.) Dream big :)
Thanks!
Ali

Nuts and Bolts

- All tenured staff should meet with Cindy to schedule their observation. You will be scheduling three dates (Pre-Observation, Observation, and Post-Observation).
- Please update your school supply list with your grade level partners and give those to Julie.
- We have quite a few events taking place after normal school hours. Make sure to lock your classroom doors and offices before leaving each day.
- Please update your emergency substitute binder in the office.
- GPPSS will be adopting Schoology as its primary Learning Management System next fall. Free accounts can be made and transferred over into the following school year. Click here to create a free account.
