F & P Data- 70% Participation Rate- We are on our way!
We will be increasing our goal every time we assess as this will help us to track our kids growth and progress over the years.
Work with Linda if your percentage is not what you expected (could be a scanning issue, could be a new student that entered after assessments were scanned) . Kindergarten students are not captured as they were not scanned for the Fall, but I know that 100% of Kinders were assessed already this year!

Operations & Logistics
Interim Housing Input Meeting- You are Invited
Share your priorities for interim housing! Come to the Meeting this week or in January or Discuss with your Interim Housing Reps (Mrs. Wong, Mrs. Ratto, and Ms. Morgan)-
It seems a long way off now, but in less than four years, Glenview students and staff will be enjoying their beautiful new school facility. In order to get there, we will temporarily move together, as a community, to an interim school site for the 2016-17 and 2017-18 school years. As you know, OUSD has identified two options for Glenview's interim site: Lakeview Elementary or Santa Fe Elementary. Based on its proximity to Glenview, Lakeview was identified as the recommended 1st option for Glenview's interim site.
However, that recommendation is not yet final and we need your input. OUSD and Glenview’s interim housing committee would like as much community input as possible to ensure the final recommendation reflects the values and priorities of a majority of Glenview families. We are asking K-3 families (those who will be affected by the move) and teachers to help.
December 16th at 6:00 pm

Work with your grade level to coordinate for Friday's Movie.
Fifth Grade girls will sell popcorn to classes during the movie for 50 cents.
Looking Ahead- Readathon
Begin thinking about what incentive might help your students meet their reading goals. Mr. Miller shaves his head ever year. Last year I ate a bug and kissed a slug and will plan to kiss a snake this year.
Get creative!
Safety First
Yard Duty!
Technology Tidbits
Ipads- K/1
I know that first grade also would like more iPads to compete a center for their classrooms. We are working with PTA to see if there will be funding in 2016 for this need.
