Tickets!
It's time to reward YOU for keeping our campus safe, civil, and productive at all times!!! Without you, our campus would not be what it is today!
Staff members will receive a ticket for actively monitoring students throughout the day (hallway, lunch, recess, etc.), standing at class doorways during arrival, dismissal, and during transitions to monitor hallway noise, in addition to following campus-wide CHAMPS and common area expectations. We are looking to acknowledge you for your diligence and consistency.
Once you receive a ticket from an administrator, please write your full name on the back and turn it in the ticket box located in the front office. At random times during the week, a drawing will be held to reward staff members for making our campus safe and civil each week.
Lead from your feet, not your seat!

Structuring Your Classroom for Instructional Success Everyday!
Our 2nd and 3rd Graders LOVED their bikes! Thank you to all volunteers! Shout out to Sara Ramirez and all 2nd and 3rd Grade Teachers for coordinating the event.
Our Vision and Mission Statements- We are what we say we are! Make every day show it.
Hearne Elementary will provide a learning environment where all students are empowered as leaders and critical thinkers. We are committed to building positive relationships in a safe environment while creating life-long learners who are prepared for the 21st century.
Mission Statement
The mission of Hearne Elementary School is to guide our students to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to make responsible life choices and positive contributions in a diverse society. In collaboration with home and community, we respond to the needs of every child, ensuring that each child can and will learn.
It's School Board Appreciation Month. Have a unique idea for what we can do? Share with an administrator by Friday, January 5th!

Tutorial teachers, we will have a meeting this week to go over the tutorial plan.

After-school Clubs
Lost and Found Clean Up
Currently, we have lunch boxes (that still have food), sweaters, and jackets. Our goal is to have this area cleared. All items left will be donated.
Content and Language Objective Need to be Visible
We will revisit this for the next academic school year (2018-2019).
The ESL team did a great job presenting the difference between a content and language objective during PLC. Please revisit your notes as you begin posting these objectives in the January 2018!
Content objectives tell what you are teaching.
Language objectives tell how you will teach it using the 4 TELPAS domains (Listening, Speaking, Reading, Writing).
Remember, we are an ESL district and campus. All classrooms should have Language Objectives posted each day.
Our UPDATED Campus Goal- Targeted Small Group Instruction
In order to achieve this goal this year and beyond, we are providing the proper training for all staff members so we can all be aligned as we tackle the Main Thing: Student Achievement.
