Lower Campus' Weekly Update
May 7-11, 2018
Reminders....
Packing: Begin to pack items that you are not using for the remainder of the year, including your personal items. You will be given color-coded packing labels soon.
Monday's Faculty Meeting: Monday's faculty meeting will focus on the End of Year checklist and items that must be completed. It's so hard to believe that there are only 3 weeks left of school! We all know there is a lot to complete in those 3 weeks. Pay particular attention to the due dates below as well as the items/dates on the End of Year checklist.
F&P, MAP, Awards & Report Cards: As you complete end of year testing, take the time to record students' scores on the classroom data spreadsheet and even on the students' report cards. Grades for any standards that you have completed this quarter can also be recorded on report cards now. Having this information can hep you decide which awards students will be receiving on the last day of school. Every student needs to receive an award. Awards will also be given by the specials teachers. The categories of awards will be coming your way soon. They should be very similar to what was given for the first semester.
Mother's Day Activities
Please encourage your students to come to school next week. Let's shoot for perfect attendance for testing!
