Hearne Elementary's Playbook
Week of September 10, 2018
Check out all the awesome things we did this week on Twitter! Keep tweeting the good things happening!
Intervention Option 1
Our data meetings last week set the stage for a great school year! We know what we have to do to close the gap and support academic growth across the campus. With your feedback, 3 options were constructed to support campus-wide interventions. Your team leaders shared the options with you and the majority vote was Option 1: taking 5 minutes from each content area to create an intervention "target time" for all 1st-4th grade students in the building. This intervention is scheduled to begin the week of September 17th. You will receive more instructions on the format this week so we can see the gains needed across the campus and you can train your students on the expectations.
The best part about the data meetings last week was the drive so many of you shared to making Hearne number 1. Your passion is inspiring! Your hard work each day is noticed and appreciated. Thank you for always going above and beyond. We have an amazing staff and collectively, we are going to the TOP!
You are making a difference!
You matter!
Your students need you!

AVID in Action Coming to Hearne this year!
Hearne has partnered with Taylor High School's AVID students to bring AVID in Action to our building this year.
Forty high school scholars will report to Hearne every Friday to serve and mentor students in their assigned classrooms. While in the classrooms, the AVID scholar's job is to provide support, encouragement, and tutoring to students in need. These students are the best and brightest in Alief.
The AVID Scholars are currently taking a True Colors personality test and selecting their grade level preferences. All PK-4 classes are eligible to participate. We will place tutors based on their grade level preference and teacher requests. They will be in your class all year!
Services students can do:
- small group tutoring
- individual tutoring
- "extra hands" during whole class instruction
- support with bulletin boards
Services students should not do:
- watch class while the teacher leaves the room
- grade papers or clerical work
- clean up classroom
Time slots for AVID tutors (they are students at Taylor HS so they will come for 30 minute service times):
9:15-9:45 am
10:10-10:40 am
11:50am-12:30pm
12:55-1:20pm

Our Vision and Mission Statement-- We are what we say we are! Make it count every day!
Hearne Elementary will provide a learning environment where all students are empowered as leaders and critical thinkers. We are committed to building positive relationships in a safe environment while creating life-long learners who are prepared for the 21st century.
Mission Statement
The mission of Hearne Elementary School is to guide our students to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to make responsible life choices and positive contributions in a diverse society. In collaboration with home and community, we respond to the needs of every child, ensuring that each child can and will learn.
Safety TidBit of the Week- HOLD in Your Classroom
Hold In Your Classroom
There may be situations that require students to remain in their classrooms. For example, an altercation in the hallway may demand keeping students out of the halls until it is resolved. There may be a need for students who are not in a classroom to proceed to an area where they can be supervised and remain safe.
What you will hear
The public address for Hold is: "Hold in your classroom" and is repeated twice each time the public address is performed. Be aware if there is a need to add additional directives for any students that are not in a classroom, at lunch or some other location where they should remain until the hold is lifted.
“Hold in your classroom.
Hold in your classroom.”
Actions
Students and teachers are to remain in their classroom, even if there is a scheduled class change, until the all clear is announced.
It is suggested that teachers should rapidly sweep the hallway for nearby students. Additionally, teachers should take attendance, note the time, and conduct business as usual.
