Please review your testing protocals for Dibels and STAR. Keep testing as low key as possible, but make sure students understand the importance of working hard and not giving up

Where is Michele? Where is Belissa? Where is Deana?
Believe it or not, Belissa and I are not still on Spring vacation! Tues and Wednesday, we are attending the regional North Alabama Instructional Partner Retreat, on Thursday and Friday we are involved in district instructional rounds protocals.
Deana is really here, but will be really busy tending to Challenger business. As she requests - peace and tranquility are the words for the week.
