Buffalo Bulletin
December 17-21
Enjoy your Christmas break! Rest, relax, and spend quality time with your loved ones! I sure appreciate each and every one of you!
Reminders & News
- Make sure to read The Exchange for district news and information
- Here is the link for the morning announcements, which begin daily at 8:00 a.m.
- Make sure to nominate kids for the P2P Learner Award (2 per teacher per 9 week period). You may begin nominating for the third grading period now!
Please work to your best ability to have students meet their weekly Lexia usage goals. Over the last few weeks we have averaged 45% and I am hopeful that after we return from the holidays and our schedules calm down, this will increase. See picture below regarding all of our campus Lexia data to date.
