BTES Staff Updates

BTES Updates
Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and got to spend some time outside. This is the final week to get the rooms closed out so please take a look at the schedule. There will be no access to BTES beginning this Friday until further notice. Starting tomorrow all students bags will be removed from the hallway and placed in the gymnasium. I know there are still things to be taken care of, but we will cross that bridge when we come to it.
Close Out Form - Please Submit
All teachers should submit the close out form when classroom is done. If you haven't done so, now is the time to check it off.

Reminders
- Please continue to share whatever you can with Sue Orlowsky for Facebook.
- 5th Grade Only! - Student placement link - due at the end of May
- Please continue to share with Kevin or I any families that are struggling or might need some assistance - we will do our best to help them out.
- Please continue to communicate with all families and students.
- Sharing Board - Google Classroom, Google Meet, Google Slides
- 6th Grade Graduation - Just to give you a heads up. One of the thoughts is for homeroom teachers to record themselves saying something to their class, read their names and then say goodbye. I really am thinking it should be no longer than 2 to 3 minutes. I will confirm this format shortly. Just wanted you to begin thinking about the plan.
Things to Remember
- If you are working in the building and you need to stay longer, just check the schedule and add your name if a slot is available.
- Please practice social etiquette if you are moving around the building.
- As always, any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. My extension when I am in the building is 2080 - Kevin's is 2002.
