Morning Meetings
A must do daily and beginning following morning announcements. Should look like students and teacher gathered as a community together, most likely on a carpet area. Absolutely CAN include (and should) a Second Steps lesson at least once a week. Can include conversations about expectations that your class is doing well or struggling with.
SMART Board Filters
Clean at least once a week! If you have not cleaned them yet - do so! If you don't know how - ask Jen Bearden for help!
Adult Restrooms
Keep the adult restrooms shut and locked at all times!
Grades in Infinite Campus
Put in grades twice a month (approximately the 15th and 30th).
Birthday and Lounge Duty
School Success Squad assigned birthday treats and lounge duty for the year. If your grade level or team is on the duty for the month, please also have your students make some art work or cards for our business partners (Scholastic and Oasis United Church of Christ). The schedule is included below.
Belair School Improvement Goals
Increase the number of students on or above grade level in math, according to the iReady assessment, from 66% to 75% at the end of the year.
Decrease the number of major office referrals by using SAEBRS data to identify students for social, emotional, or other at risk factors, and providing interventions appropriate for those students.
