The Polser Pride
Week of February 11th - February 15th, 2019
What's Happening this week?
Staff,
We have had a good response from our STEM Information Meetings for our STEM Academy next year! We will begin interviewing teachers very soon for our added positions.
I wanted to let you all know that Beth Basinger will be retiring at the end of the year. Please join me in wishing her well. I know we will celebrate her a little later in the school year.
Congratulations are in order for Melodee Garrett and Tiffani Garcia for completing their STEM Certification. We will have our first official White Coat Ceremony on Wednesday, February 20th in the Library at 3:10. We will celebrate Amy Siegrist, Melodee, and Tiffani.
Please make sure to spend your grade level money before Spring Break. The last day to spend your money is Friday, March 22nd. Check with Jocelyne if you need instructions.
This week we have a few things happening. TELPAS Calibration is Tuesday, February 12th from 3:00-4:00. Our last STEM Information Meeting is Tuesday, February 12th, from 6:30-7:15 p.m. at Polser. I will not need any volunteers. There is a Team Leader Meeting on Wednesday, February 13th at 3:10 p.m. We will review the Bright Bytes Survey which will open on the 15th for teachers, and 3-5th grade students. Valentine's Parties are Thursday, February 14th. Hoops for Heart/Jump Rope for Heart will be Friday, February 15th. Everyone is invited to wear RED! Feel free to leave after all of your students have gone home on Thursday, February 14th and Friday, February 15th. It's a long weekend-No School Monday, February 18th.
Have a wonderful week,
Lisa
