RTI Meetings
Please review it and let me know of any issues or oversights. We will get notifications of conference to classroom teachers early next week. Please send those notices home with parents and make an additional contact (email/phone call) to verify their attendance.
I will send out a final schedule early next week.
We will have floating subs for the staff that need to attend those meetings.
Royals of the Month
Recess
1. Please do not allow students to play soccer or similar games on the blacktop. If there is a risk for tripping, they should be playing on the grass. Reserve the blacktop for basketball, tetherball, and chalk, ect... Any running, tagging, chasing, kickball, wall ball games need to be in the grass.
2. As a reminder, students need to have close supervision during recess. If you are with multiple classrooms, please divide and supervise different zones (fields, playground, blacktop). If you are with your class alone, please keep students closer to your line of vision. This may mean asking students to only play in areas that you can closely supervise.
End of Day Bus Dismissal
