Action Items
- Watering Schedule - There are only a few spots left! If your class is interested in taking a slot on the schedule, sign up HERE
- Reminder from Nurse Jill - If you signed up for a flu shot, Dr. Swaldi’s office will be here between 12-12:45 on Tuesday, October 11th in the small conference room located in the office.

- LPAC Management System - Please pick your day, and sign up for the training (see below for more info).
- October FedEx - Please register for the October FedEx session (see info below).
- Bathroom Monitoring - Please make sure are monitoring learners going to the B/C bathrooms (both as a whole class and as much as possible independently). Because these bathrooms are getting lots of extra traffic, they are experiencing a little abuse... We won't go into additional info. ;)
- 3rd-5th STAAR Supplemental Aides -Some of the rules for STAAR have changed. The RtI committee can now decide if a learner needs a supplemental aid on the assessment. Please review this presentation to determine supplemental aids that you might begin using with learners now.

- Wilson Fest! - Wilson Fest is right around the corner... Here are a few details to give you a "heads up" of what to expect!
-Each team is being asked to host a decorated "Trunk or Treat" car. You can be
reimbursed for decor if needed. Candy AND volunteers (fingers crossed) will be
provided.

Face). Raffle activities will happen at 7:45.

Info Too Good To Miss
- Be sure to congratulate Mrs. Q.... She is the proud recipient of a $1,000 Art Grant from Burlington Coat Factory. Way to go Mrs. Q!
- Long Distance Access - Several campuses brought up the concern of how inconvenient it is for educators to not have long distance access from their classrooms (especially given that it is parent conference "season"). After hearing the concerns, Mr. Hunt has agreed to add long distance to each classroom phone. I don't have the details on when it will happen, but I wanted to pass it along!
- Homecoming Parade - If you are joining in the fun on Wednesday for our Wilson Homecoming Parade Float, feel free to wear jeans and a Wilson Spirit Shirt.
