Wilson Weekly
Week of January 6th, 2020
Welcome Back!
New Wilson Rangers
We're starting off 2020 with 3 new Wilson Rangers that we're pretty excited about:
- Oaklyn Muse - She just couldnt' wait to get here! Jordan has shared that all of the texts/calls have meant the world to her and helped with the transition in bringing Oaklyn home. I'll be organizing a meal train and will send that out this week, if you (or your team) would like to participate.
- Courtney Sinclair - We're incredibly lucky to have Courtney join us this Spring. She'll be filling in for Jordan while also gaining some great admin experience. Please help me welcome her, and help make her transition as smooth as possible!
Her cell is (214) 458-1120 - Pamela Cardoso - We're thrilled to have her join the Kinder team. As you can imagine, it's tough starting off mid-year. Please make a point to stop by to welcome her, and check in to see if there is anything she needs!
Here's to a great 2020!
Action Items
- Grades Due - While the timing might not be optimal, all grades are due to be entered by Tuesday @ 12:00.
- Wednesday Faculty Meeting - All staff are required to attend Wednesday's Faculty Meeting. We will cover the next session of required district Ethics Training.
- FedEx - Interested in hosting a FedEx session on Wednesday the 15th? Send me an email!
- Cyber Security - Please be extra cautious when opening emails. Shortly before the Break, an actual phishing scam went through the district. Approximately 300 staff members received phishing emails. 7 employees clicked on malicious links, and 4 provided personal information. Be aware!
PTO Grants
Our 2nd annual PTO Grant program will open for submissions next week! Be thinking now about any items you would like to submit. Last year's grants funded Flocabulary Subscriptions, Conference Registrations, iPad Holders, Math Tools, Yoga Mats, and much more.
Look for info in next week's Wilson Weekly on how to submit an application.
MAP
The MAP window opens on January 27th. Look for an email over the next few days to sign up your class for times within the schedule. We will again use that schedule to plan for small group supports.
Collective Engagement Spotlight - 1st Grade
Check out 1st Grade's new feature in their team newsletter (above). They've committed to adding a section highlighting learners/classes/educators that demonstrate Collective Engagement within their team.
Way to go 1st!
If your team is ready to share your "Collective Engagement" commitment, go ahead and shoot me an email. If not, that's okay too. I'll follow up with you over the coming weeks.
