4th Quarter...When the STARS Shine!!!
- Not a review quarter- instruction needs to continue based on pacing guide...Don't go it alone this is the TIME to COLLABORATE more often!!!
- Not “Panic Mode” we are in “URGENCY Mode” as we embark on the End of the School Year!!!
- In order to Maintain the focus on LEARNING you may need to ASK questions more or Be More FLEXIBLE as what I have learned is the EOY in an Elementary School means many MOVING Parts!!!
- Remember South Family...TEAM means Together Everyone Achieves More
