Remember Your Why!
Hello Team!
This week I reflected on the "Dirty Jersey" attitude that we need to get this work done. Thursday's ask was an example of this. In this job, we have a lot. However, this is when your why is most important. We do this work because we love our kids. We want to be the best for them. During this season, when we all are trying to find our flow, go back to your golden circle and go back to the opening session when I asked us to be all in. We are all in this together and while I cannot tell you that things will get easier( I have been doing this for ten years and that has yet to happen) I can tell you that you will find your flow. Grateful to do this work alongside you:)
Clear Goals, Full Hearts, All In! JAR!

Donors Choose Project - Optional but highly encouraged
Here are some quick steps:
1) Go to this site: https://www.donorschoose.org/teachers
2) Use your personal email and select Compass Rose Academy with the Outer Circle address.
3) Begin writing up your project.
Our budget is very tight and we have minimal funds around the following items:
a. Classroom libraries – this would consist of a bank of independent reading books for students that they could read or check out in your classroom.
b. Professional Development – these would consist of, now mostly online, opportunities for you to engage in content relevant to you.
c. Field Trips – a typical bus for a day costs from $1,000 - $1,500. Buses will also have spaced out seating so that means we need twice as many buses per field trip now. These may be limited now, in our situation.
d. Other classroom supplies tied to projects or resources that you may want for your classroom.
4) Once you have set up your account and posted a need, please let both Brittany and Monica know that you set up an account.
