Inspiring Passionate Learners
Falcons Choose Kindness and Brag Tags
We will have our first student of the week for each classroom beginning the week of September 3rd. Please see the Student of the Week chart below and add this to your drive. I will also add it to the PCE Quick Links.
S.T.E.A.M. Fridays
Additionally, students who have met their behavior goal, will participate in our campuswide STEAM Friday activities. STEAM Friday will take place from 2:00-2:30 each Friday. Students who don’t meet their behavior goal will go to STEAM Friday with the administration team and counselor to work through a STEAM reflective process to help them learn strategies to become more successful in the learning environment..
Please safe the S.T.E.A.M. Friday link below to your drive. It has also been added to the PCE Quick Links.
No children may be placed in the hallway as a discipline step. This could result in a child leaving campuses without the knowledge of the teacher or staff.
Tips for T-TESS Goal Setting
Tips for T-TESS goal setting
We will be discussing T-TESS goal setting at our staff meeting on Thursday, August 22nd at 3:10 in the library. Please plan on our staff meetings lasting until 4:30. Please view the information below and come to the meeting with your goal in draft form.
New teachers, who have not had any T-TESS training yet, will get to listen into your conversations to help them start honing in on their goals. More info about training coming soon.
1. Refer to the T-TESS Rubric & pick one area of focus.
2. How does the area of focus you’ve chosen support our School Board's Wildy Important Goal and our campus Wildly Important Goals(WIGs) Our WIGS will remain the same as they were last year.
Wildly Important Goals 2019-20
3. Is your goal SMART?
4. What kinds of evidence can you collect for your T-TESS Goal? I will email you a link to your T-TESS folder housed in Google. During your T-TESS Goal Setting Conference, we will show you how to add the link to your T-TESS in Strive.
