New Year....New Look
Please know that this is a learning process for us as well....we appreciate your patience.
I hope the holidays brought you the time to relax and rejuvenate. As we come back, I thought you might enjoy this video to remind you of the JAWSOME opportunity we have to impact lives.

How Full Is Your Bucket?
Here's your chance to go a little further on your bucket journey. Check out the video above and if it sounds like something you would be interested in reading more about, grab one of the books (they will be by the boxes) and email me that you took one. Once we have a small group, we'll chat about how we want to meet to share our insights about the book.
Staffing
If you are considering retirement, be sure to get your paperwork submitted by the end of the month so you qualify for the district's $3,000 incentive.
While it may be an uneasy conversation to have with me, if you are pursuing employment outside the district or are planning on resigning your position, please let me know as soon as possible. Hiring and budgetary decisions are already in discussions and the more information I have, the better informed my decisions will be.
Kindness Week
I've curated a playlist of videos (thanks Caitlin for the YouTube playlist PD). Please be sure to preview them before you show them to your students; they may not be appropriate for all grade levels.
