Classroom Redesign
Below is a message that Nora sent out before we went on break. Our math classrooms went through this process during Fall break of this year and their rooms received new furniture with flexible seating and arrangements.
We are starting the 2nd phase of our classroom redesign project in Exeter. If you are interested in being a part of Phase 2 please take the following survey. Survey must be submitted no later than January 12th to be considered for phase 2. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Data Chats
On January 22nd and 23rd , we will be having our end of the quarter Data Chats. Data chats are an opportunity for teachers to meet with admin. and reflect on their benchmark data. It will also be an opportunity for teachers to check-in on their goals and share any beginning work they've started or evidence they've collected. A roving sub will be here both days, and a schedule went out on Friday. Data chats last approximately 20 minutes.
Awards Assemblies
On Wednesday, January 24th and on Thursday, January 25th we will be holding our 6th grade and 7th/8th grade awards assemblies from 5:00-6:00. Teachers are invited to attend these assemblies.
LCAP Survey
Our math classes will be having students take the LCAP survey this week. Results from the survey are used to measure and set the short and long term goals for the plan. The results are shared at LCAP meetings and to the Board. Please make sure to administer this short survey to students to ensure that their perspective is represented.
Community Day School
There has been a change in plans for the soft opening of the CDS school at Wilson in Rms 11 & 12. A fence will soon be going up around the perimeter of these two rooms. However, students will not be placed on this campus until 2018-19. For the spring of 2018, students will be place in the Independent Study room at EUHS.
Staff Gathering
We have a staff get together scheduled for this Friday, January 26th at 5:00 at Sequoia Brewing Company. Feel free to come join us for an evening of laughter and refreshments.
