We'd like to give a BIG shout out to all who participated in the selfie challenge!! Your team selfies were amazing and it was hard to choose a winner! The 2019 Parkside Selfie Award goes to first grade!
There was a little bit of confusion around the SLO goal updates and mid-year goal conferences. Please see this short video to see what the conference will look like.
1. All staff must have their SLO goals updated by January 24th for your progress Checkin #2.
2. Marianne and I will be meeting with your grade level teams over the next two weeks
for mid-year goal conferences. Please be prepared to share! If you need help or have questions we are here to help you. :)
Reagan Elementary will be hosting EdCamp Leander! EdCamps are fun and relevant to classroom instruction. This type of profession learning opportunity is participant driven. There are no pre-planned sessions. You can sign up to lead a session, or attend a session. See the link to learn more.
