Thursday Brief
August 16, 2018
Happy Thursday!!!
I realize it's been overwhelming with so much beginning of year tasks. Listed below are things to remember if you haven't already created your own "to do" list.
- Daily Schedules-Jeanine will be reviewing daily schedules Friday. All detailed schedules need to be in the Google drive file by then.
- Safe Schools Training-don't forget to log in and complete your online trainings. If you are having trouble with login, email Hoover.
- Dyslexia Training-you received an email recently to complete an online training for this. This is a required training for all teachers.
- "Help Our School" Google Form. Don't forget to complete this form ASAP. The link is below. Also, click here https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-tV_mMORR1QXD7oZoESyZ5lQ9Z1IsZtw/view?usp=sharing to see what is already taken. (Yellow areas of need.)
- Schedules-Make sure you make the corrections that I email you on your HR Roster. Also, make sure you cross check all of your other rosters with your HR roster.
- Counseling Schedule-Please see Mrs. Villarreal and set up your counseling days.
- Please pay for Faculty Dues ($20 Teacher, $10 Para) and Staff Shirt to Nadine. Shirts should arrive Thursday Morning and we can wear them to convocation Friday.
- Please access the universal screener for more information on your students. Email Jeanine if you need the link to your grade level.
- We are so sorry about the delay on the agendas/teacher planners. They should be here Friday so we will try and get them out to you by Monday.
- If you signed up for our first book study (Teach Skills and Break Habits), I sent you an invite on Google to our Study Group.
Notes from Mrs. Cristan
Walkie Talkies:
- Radios need to be on Channel 1 to contact office (Mrs. Pena).
- Radios need to be taken to recess.
- Keep radios charged at all times.

Let’s get into the habit now:
- Remember to sign in and out on a daily basis.
Safety Protocol Signs:
- Colorful signs will be placed in your box – 2 per room.

- Make reference in sub. plans where this information will be located.
Tri-fold Safety Protocol Pamphlet needs to be brought with you to the training next Tuesday (will be placed in teacher boxes).
- Read over in its entirely- become familiar with it.
- Train students by September 14th. Practice all drills – our goal is to make the students aware and ease their anxiety.
