Lower Campus' Weekly Update
May 14-18, 2018
Reminders....
2- MAP: Thank you for all of your patience through testing last week. We made it through with the dinosaur laptops! There are a few kiddos who have to continue or make-up a session. I will complete this on Monday.
3- TKES: Summative conferences will be held this week. Please check for a calendar invite. Prior to your conference, ensure you have signed off on all observations. During your summative conference, we will review your ratings for the year and determine your overall summative evaluation rating. We'll also reflect on your year. Here are questions we'll discuss:
a- What was a success for you this year?
b- What was a challenge for you this year?
c- How do you feel PBIS worked in your classroom?
d- Did you meet the goal you set at the beginning of the year in TKES? Why do you think you did/did not meet this goal?
e- Thoughts for next year. What will you continue doing that has worked? What area do you want to grow in as an educator?
4- End of Year Checklist: Remember to review the end of the year checklist to complete the tasks by the deadline assigned. As you complete items, be sure to get the checklist initialed for each item.
5- Retention Meetings: Meetings will be held this week. When you attend, bring the student's F&P level, MAP scores, any class assessment data/work samples, and any intervention data you may have. Calendar invites have been sent for most meetings. Be on the look out for the rest.
6- Field Day: Field Day is this Thursday and will be held at our new school location. Busing will be provided. We will not have access to the inside of the building. Which means, we will have port-a-potties on the grounds for everyone to use. More details will be coming.
