ELL goals and plan
This is the plan that we went over on Friday. Every group needs to have a plan with each category of ELL learners. Talk about it in your PLCs. I will put a copy of the TEKS and ELPS cheat sheet and ESL tools that Stacy left us in your boxes if you were absent on Friday. Click here for the goals and plan.

Fine Arts Department Meeting notes
Thank you, Rachel, for taking notes and thank you, Cindy for showing us the light! . Here are the notes from the department meeting.
Parent Contact
Make sure you call parents every IPR/or RC grading period if you have a student that is failing or struggling. Do not wait until the last week of the 9 weeks. Make sure you document it. A follow up email is fine, but do not use an email alone.
