Words of Inspiration
“Inside each of us is a natural-born storyteller, waiting to be released.”
-Robin Moore
A Special Applause to...
PD on the Fly...
Our students are so tech-savvy. They have learned to navigate the digital world through years of experience at home and here at school. As we continue down this path, we will see the pendulum swing, as we do in most things in education. I found this article interesting. The author talks about creating thinkers, collaborators, and revisers. Sarah Weir states, “Imagine a school class with children fully engaged and immersed in working together to solve real-world issues. They are self-driven, collaborative, coming up with new ideas and throwing out the ones that don’t work. They think creatively and apply this across their entire life."
I know you are reflecting on the work you do here constantly. I hope this makes you think! Enjoy!

Info for the Staff
BELLS ARE RINGING
Initially transportation told us that students would be dropped off and ready to enter the building at 8:00 am. That has not been the case. We have reprogrammed the bells and will take away the 8:05 bell and add an 8:15 bell. We will use the 8:15 bell to start announcements.
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT MEETINGS
For those of you who are looking at the scheduled meetings doc or the GR Rooms calendar, I want to clarify the meeting scheduled for Tuesday, September at 7:20. We will use these meeting times this year to catch up on Professional Growth Plans. We will ask you to share, celebrate, or solicit help from a colleague. Teachers will go with the group they select from the FIP self assessment - targets, assessment, or feedback. Since these groups have not been established, we will pick it up on October.
