Five Things
October 19th, 2020 Roselawn Internal Newsletter for Staff
We had a little taste of November this weekend. Hopefully, everybody had a great weekend and last Friday was productive for grade level teams.
As always...enjoy this week's Five Things!
Fall Celebration
Another way we can bring back some resemblance of normalcy is by having a Fall Celebration or classroom Halloween party. The party would take place during the afternoon of Friday, October 30th.
The only thing we ask our teachers is to stress with families that any treats should be prepackaged. If you have any questions, please let us know. Thank you!
Pictures on October 22nd
Just a reminder that we will be having student and staff pictures on October 22nd. I have attached the times that classes signed up for below.
Make sure you (yes you) get your picture taken as well!
Virtual students may come in for pictures between 7:50 - 8:30 AM. They will be entering by the gym and leaving right away.
Bulldog Leaders
I know we have said this before, but we want to state it again on how impressed we are with the way our staff and students have adapted to the many changes we have implemented to keep everyone safe. We know these changes have not been easy, and with these, have come some stress and anxiety. In keeping a pulse on our student body, we want to bring some normalcy back to their day. We would like to bring back our monthly assemblies. These would be done virtually.
The monthly assemblies would include a birthday song and also a recognition of our Bulldog Leaders. This is a fun way for us to recognize those students who are going above and beyond our expectations. One student from each classroom would be recognized and the classroom teacher would read the description during the school-wide Google Meet.
Our October Assembly will be Friday, October 30th and each grade level would be able to select the time that works best for them. Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Parent Teacher Conferences
Saturday evening I sent out the Parent-Teacher Conference availability form. Please submit this ASAP and I will enter your schedule into our parent sign-up portal.
Also we will be asking parents the following:
- Do you prefer a phone or video conference?
- What number should we call you at for your scheduled conference?
- Do you need to meet with counseling, art, music, or phy ed teachers as well?
Later in the week I will share your log in information so you can view your sign ups on the portal.
Outdoor Recess
As we look at the extended forecast, the highs are going to be in the low 40's for the week. All students will need to have a hat, coat, and gloves in order to go outside. This year looks a little different in our ability to help with these belongings. We have some winter gear items and will have a process shortly on how to get these to those families in need. However, we will not have the luxury to go to a lost and found location like in years past to get some gear quickly.
Please remind students to bring these belongings and also make sure they are wearing these as they head out for recess. Thank you in advance.
