Magical Moment Shout-Out
So the month of May is officially "Teacher Appreciation Month" at Guzick. We hope that you enjoy the food, treats, gifts, dress-up days as small tokens of our appreciation for the challenging, yet worthwhile job each of you do every day. You could teach anywhere in the world, but you choose to teach at Guzick, and I am super blessed to have each of you on my staff.
From the Bottom of My Heart I THANK YOU!

Summative Conferences
Minimizing Individual Student Restroom Breaks
Please minimize the number of individual restroom breaks that students are taking during instructional time. Please encourage your students to use the restroom during the "scheduled classroom restroom break" unless it is a medical emergency or dire emergency.
As we approach the end of the year, and with Spring Fever in full effect, we have to monitor our students very closely at all times.
