Reflective questions:
What can our district do to support a 100% fill rate to ensure success for our students?
What is the difference between January 2017 and January 2018 that would cause our fill rates to decrease by nearly 6%, with fewer absences?
Feel free to respond via email to help us problem solve ways we can increase our fill rates to mhutson@nisdtx.org subject: increase fill rates

Feedback rating
If you had a major concern or problem and don't feel comfortable addressing on the evaluation, please alert the campus administrator(s) of the concerns.
The only way a situation can be addressed is to know it exists!
What can I do with those awkward last ten minutes of class when I've completed it all?
1. Have students complete an exit ticket about something they learned in class that day and turn into you when exiting the class.
2. Create fun structured conversations! Give the whole class a sentence stem that they have to fill in themselves, and then make them go find at least 5+ different partners to practice it with. The repetition of both speaking and listening will help cement it in their brains. (i.e. If I made a modern-day movie about the Shakespeare play we read today, I would cast ____________ as ____________ because they are both __________.)
3. Have students share all they know about a subject! (i.e. name as many U.S. states as they can and the capitals)
GREAT Guest Educator!
Claire El-Khoury
Claire El-Khoury is the definition of the phrase ’willingness to help’. Mrs. El-Khoury has been a GREAT Guest Educator at Beck for many years. Claire is always willing to fill in where needed. Switching job assignments at the last minute do not phase her one bit. She relishes long-term assignments and cares for the children in those classes as if she were their teacher every day. Claire is a treasure here at Beck. ---Beck Elementary
Deanna Roskop
Mrs. Roskop has been a Guest Educator on our campus several times within the past two weeks. She has been willing to come in at the last minute and has been extremely helpful. She does a fantastic job, and the teachers and students love her! ---Peterson Elementary
