1st Edition, Vol. 20, February 8, 2019
From the desk of Eric, Maggie and Marianne
We have loved seeing all the great things going on around campus. Thank you for all the work you put into making learning fun and exciting for your students. We love the level of challenge and engagement that we see throughout the school. If you would like a refresher on the for levels of DOK follow the link.
Last week we asked you to give us one word to describe Parkside. If you haven't had a chance to fill out the form please follow the link to do so by next Tuesday.
This week was National Counselor week. We are so appreciative of Ami Harman and all that she does for our students and staff.
We will have girl scout troop 40404 sharing a service project with us next week. They will be sharing the project Monday morning on the news. The troop will be placing heart cut outs in your boxes for students to create Valentines that the troop will then deliver. There will be a box in the workroom for you to drop your completed Valentines off when your students are done. This is voluntary but we would love any and all to participate. Be on the lookout for your bag of hearts.
LISD is requiring that teachers complete the LISD Volunteer Application and receive approval before they can volunteer for events outside of their regular teaching duties. Please if you are wanting to volunteer outside of school hours fill out the form.
Have a wonderful weekend!

From Mrs. Harman...
- All LISD employees and their immediate family have access to 6 free counseling sessions per issue per year. This is completely confidential and LISD will never receive your name or be made aware that you used this service. I have placed copies of the information in my box for you to take.
