McAllister Minutes
Week of: April 30 - May 4
McAllister Minutes
This week has been a week full of INCREDIBLE Activities! The instruction, engagement and field day fun made this past week one for the books! As we embark on a week of state assessments it is important to remind ALL of our students of the expectations throughout the building. This next week is truly game time and an opportunity for students to show what they know! I believe in each of you and know that our students will make it happen this week!
With an intentional focus of consistency on being curious & crazy for kids you will ALWAYS find a culture that is student focused!
Have a great week!

Below I have listed a few reminders so that they can be kept at the forefront as you plan and execute your daily tasks!
- Need a Substitute? Be sure that you have entered your absence in AESOP as well as notified your grade level admin and Ms. Lane! Personal Leave will not be approved without 3 days notice - Substitutes are a hot commodity and should be secured in advance if you are utilizing personal leave. *Emergency Sub Plans should always be prepared in the case you have an emergency!
- Money? Please ensure that all money is accounted for daily and that it never stays in your room overnight. MyPaymentsPlus has been a big help with this, but we still need to be cognizant of this as we collect money.
- Lunch - Please be on time, the flow and cleaning procedures are not able to flow efficiently and effectively when students are not picked up on time. Thank you in advance!
- Communication w/Parents -If a student is consistently not meeting the expectation whether it be academically or behaviorally please be certain you are contacting those parents by phone and that you are able to talk to an actual person and not an answering machine.We are a team and will work together to support the needs of our students, if you have questions or need assistance please let me know! NO Surprises!
Have an INCREDIBLE Week!
