McAllister Minutes
Week of: March 5 - March 9
McAllister Minutes
This coming week we will take time on Thursday during planning to plan for the future as we bring curriculum documents/planning back into the fold of things. Believe it or not, the end of the school year is near and it is important that we revisit these items regularly to ensure we are providing the most comprehensive plans for teachers, students and those that will be joining our team in the coming year.
With an intentional focus of consistency on being curious & crazy for kids you will ALWAYS find a culture that is student focused!
Have a great week!
Below I have listed a few reminders so that they can be kept at the forefront as you plan and execute your daily tasks!
- Need a Substitute? Be sure that you have entered your absence in AESOP as well as notified your grade level admin and Ms. Lane! Personal Leave will not be approved without 3 days notice - Substitutes are a hot commodity and should be secured in advance if you are utilizing personal leave. *Emergency Sub Plans should always be prepared in the case you have an emergency!
- Money? Please ensure that all money is accounted for daily and that it never stays in your room overnight. MyPaymentsPlus has been a big help with this, but we still need to be cognizant of this as we collect money.
- Lunch - Please be on time, the flow and cleaning procedures are not able to flow efficiently and effectively when students are not picked up on time. Thank you in advance!
- Communication w/Parents -If a student is consistently not meeting the expectation whether it be academically or behaviorally please be certain you are contacting those parents by phone and that you are able to talk to an actual person and not an answering machine.We are a team and will work together to support the needs of our students, if you have questions or need assistance please let me know! NO Surprises!

Parent Conferences/Parent Contact
- Phone Call
- Conference
I understand that time is precious this time of year, please ensure that parents are aware of their child's academic standing and what can be done as we finish the year strong. One of the strongest pieces of communication can be channeled through the students themselves; consider sharing a flipgrid with parents in which students describe what they have learned this year and areas in which they would like to further focus their efforts. When students are in on the process, the results are that much more effective!
Happy Birthday to You!
