#EyesOnThePrize
We have eight busy days left before we have a well-earned and deserved break to refresh! These next eight days will go by fast! We will need all hands on deck during mornings, halls, and busses to ensure that our scholars are supervised. This week will wrap up TKES and complete summative conferences. GMAS data is all in and we are waiting on EOCs to do final calculations and move cards. Our improvements in gaps is solid. I am excited to see how we fall and feel confident that our hard work at being intentional and engaging for our scholars will get to our goal! Make sure you rest up and get ready for an ELITE week!
#KidsDeserveIt
- SMILE! Be Happy! #BeELITEInYour20SquareFeet! Be intentional! You set the tone for your day by radiating positive energy and body language! Relationships trump EVERYTHING else. Scholars don't learn from people they don't like! You can have ELITE level expectations and still build relationships that impact!
- Summer Experience is here: information will be sent out to teachers who are teaching this week. ALL teams need to work on personal invites to scholars. Team leaders will communicate this information to you on Monday.
- Hallway Bulletin Boards: Please make sure they are current and not empty.
- Thank you for your attendance in the RCD Rollout Session One. Information on Session Two will be out this week.
- Please turn in your lesson plans for this week and for next in the book. Make sure your last 8 days are planned, intentional, and engaging. We will have less behavior if scholars are engaged in the tasks and learning.
- ALL CLASSROOMS: need the standard and learning target posted on your boards. Learning still continues through the end of the school year.
- Dress Code: Please make sure all attire is professional, even on jeans days.
- This is the last BREAK on Thursday!
- TKES Conferences will begin Monday. You will need everything signed off in the platform before Wednesday.
- STAFF: If you are going to be out, you must let me know. Please text. No exceptions. Also, if you need to leave campus early, you must let me know via text or email.
- TEACHERS: when you have students, you need to be in your classroom.
- STAFF: If you have something you want to communicate to the whole staff, please email me and we will work through that process.
- End of Year Celebration: Thursday 9:00 AM, Breakfast begins at 8:30 AM.
- End of Year Checklist will be in the next focus.

#WhatImReading
#SoManyBooksIf you are looking for a new book to read this summer, check out Educated by Tara Westover.
I was mesmerized reading Tara Westover's memoir-- her powerful tale of trying to find her place in this world without losing her family all the while finding herself. If you loved Hillbilly Elegy (which I felt like was reading about my life) and The Glass Castle, you will love this read and it will be perfect for the summer!
Understanding the buckets and how to WIN at GAPS is our focus! Targets are set!
