Rocco's corner
We must also maintain our presence in the hallways during transitions. Teams must continue to supervise the processions to P.E. and lunch for their students every day. During all of these transitions (even between the 7 periods) those who have been issued radios are expected to keep them on and use them whenever an incident may arise.
The radio is the quickest way to get help to you when you need it most. The sooner we respond to an escalated incident, the more likely we are to prevent damage or harm.
AVID
Field Trip Monday, May 16
Admission Possible Celebration at AMCHS
We depart at 12:30 so AVID students will eat A or B lunch.
We will return during 6th period.
Behavior Tip of the Week:
Have students who are acting tired or listless? Maybe apathetic, unmotivated, or not interested in school? As we near the conclusion of this school year, consider using at least 1 of the 28 suggested strategies from PRIM Strategy 158.
We know this time of year is stressful. You are doing a great job! Hang in there!

On Monday we will celebrate our kids working hard during SSI STAAR time. During 2nd and a little of 3rd period, we will have kids in the lecture hall celebrating. I will have Life Skill aids deliver hall passes (pink) to the students on Monday during 1st period. The students will report to the Lecture hall at the beginning of 2nd period. I will get with Mary Davis regarding attendance. I know she will love me!
