Unity Day!
Verbiage for Class Newsletters:
As part of National Bullying Prevention Month, Nova will be participating in the nationwide Unity Day on October 21. Students will be signing a Unity Day banner, showing their commitment to unite the school in kindness, acceptance, and inclusion. On this day, students are invited to wear orange shirts/tops with uniform bottoms to show their support. Students who are not participating by wearing orange must be in their regular uniforms. We are looking forward to a great day!
*You can print anti-bullying posters for your classroom! The posters are located on the server: X:/A SCHOOL OF GRAMMAR/Anti-Bullying Posters. They are set up as 11x17.

Reminders!
*Continue working on your conduct reports! Versions of the reports can be found on the server:
X:\A SCHOOL OF GRAMMAR\Conduct Reports
Please make a homeroom-specific folder that contains all of your reports on one document, in alphabetical order. These can be saved in the same folder as the original.Please save them as “Last Name 15-16”. I made a sample of this on the server as well.
*If a student is getting a C- or below in any of your classes, please send a progress report so there are no surprises at conferences!
*Keep journaling about the different ways virtue is embedded and explored in the curriculum. Let Brooke know if you need another copy of the journal sheet.
*There is still lots of money for the teacher grants through NPTO. It is money that they want teachers to use! Don't forget to fill out the form and turn it in!
