Peek at the Week
Week of 10/28/19
Monday Motivation
Kids deserve an excited adult. They need someone who's ready to explore and laugh with them all day- someone who's looking for those magic moments, full of high fives coming down the line with energy radiating all around.
Announcements
- Thank you to everyone for your efforts with all of our events last week- book fair, conferences, field trips, and more!
- Goal meetings for certified staff begin this week. Please have all of your information ready and shared prior to your meeting so we can make use of the planned time- it is a packed few days!
- K-4 data team meetings: Most of your second meetings are coming up, please review the document from the first meeting to bring the appropriate data to share. I will try to attend every meeting, but this is difficult. Please make sure someone records notes in the document when I am not there.
- There will be a special "town hall" type board meeting on Monday night at 6:30 in the library- the topic is a discussion on regionalizing middle school sports.
- Reminder: Our student monthly challenge for the month of October is Perseverance.
Weekly reminders:
- Parents and students depend on us for Social Media posts- please send to Michelle as often as possible!
