Bearcat Brief
April 12, 2019
Notes from Niki
Some end of the year tasks that you can put on your to-do list are (1) look at the supply list for your grade level- Dr. Smith would like those pared down to items that students will need and use themselves in the classroom- minimize "community" supplies and non-instructional material. (2) 4th, 5th, and 6th-grade teachers should write (update) a welcome letter to their students. We will once again use the "letter from your teacher" as the carrot to complete online registration for the younger students.
I have included the schedule for GLA testing below. 5th and 6th- grade teams, if you can look at the altered schedule for April 29th and see how that works with your class schedules and let me know. 1st and 2nd-hour specials and lunch will have to remain fixed as you see, but other transitions can be altered to fit your needs. Please include Mr. Sachs and Mrs. Worland in your plans.
GLA Testing
- 5th grade will test after specials and then alter their schedule accordingly for the remainder of the day
- 8th grade will test in their science classes
