CUDOS
Thanks to ALL OF YOU who are parking in the grassy area!! I know this is NOT ideal, but it helps tremendously with drop off and pick up. They are looking into adding a layer of pavement for parking in part of the grassy area to alleviate our current situation, but you know how that goes.....
I have LOVED getting to participate in your circle time with your classes. I apologize to Mrs. Carnley and Ms. Cavazos that I got called out right in the middle!! Everyone is doing a GREAT job with this, and Mari has already had a successful circle time with a discipline issue. Keep up the great work with this.... I believe it WILL make a positive difference!!
COMPLETIONS
ARD Preparation: Sherry has some AWESOME documents that she used in her previous district to collect data for PLAAFPs and establishing strong goals and objectives. She will give these to you a couple weeks before the ARD meeting. Please get these back to her as quickly as possible so she can get draft IEPs sent to parents one week in advance of the meeting.
Teachers: Please send me your daily schedule as soon as possible. I know you are still tweaking them, but send me what you've got for now. Also, Mari needs your signed textbook receipts and your 504 accommodations acknowledgements by Wednesday, August 31st.
COMING UP
GOALS CONFERENCES: All teachers' goals conferences must be completed and documented by September 22nd. Please check the handbook to see who your formal evaluator is and schedule a conference to discuss.
OPEN HOUSE: We had to change the date for our Open House. Please start sending this information to parents NOW so they can change their calendars. Open House will be September 13th from 5:30 - 7:00pm.
CAUTIONS
T-TESS RUBRIC: Please make sure you refer to your rubric when doing your plans. Remember that your plans have to have certain elements to be considered proficient (rock star). You have to show how your activity is aligned with your lesson objectives.
CLE CARES
One already a grandma, the other can't wait!
Who are the 2 with their very first grands?
Congratulate them as their family expands!!! <3
HELP please??? I am in charge of all of the drinks for the Lindsey Lee Boot Scoot every year. Since my daughter no longer works for NBISD, I no longer have access to all the athletic coolers and ice chests. If you have any drink coolers (large 5-10 gallon) or large ice chests that you don't mind loaning out, I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to borrow them. Please make sure your name is clearly marked on it as I will need to collect about 20 drink coolers and 20 ice chests to have enough and I want to be sure to return them to you!! Thanks in advance!!
