November has arrived!
We survived last week with the sugar holiday! Thank you to everyone for your flexibility and understanding as we worked through the yucky weather on Halloween day. Next year, Halloween is on a Saturday! That will give the kids a day to rest and recover after the busy night.
This week we have Tuesday off for Professional Development. I emailed out the schedule last week, but also included again below. The times for PD are correct on the form, as negotiated between UCS and the UEA. You will be not have the entire day in PD, but will start at 8:00 AM. These hours count toward the required 30 PD hours per year that the state of Michigan records.
Sub/Bus Duty forms are due by Friday, November 8. I sent out the forms I had on file and have received a few back. I just completed the remaining forms, added employee number, printed and signed. They are in your mailboxes for your signature. Then return to me and I will put a completed copy in your mailbox for your records. If anything is incorrect, please let me know.
Report Cards are due to the main office on Wednesday, November 6 by 12:00 PM. They will be double checked for any errors and uploaded to the board office the next day. Report Cards will be sent home electronically at the end of the day on November 19. You can use a printed copy, or reference Power School using a laptop during conferences. If you would like a class set of report cards, please let Sharon know and she can help run the final copies.
Have a great week!

Video Tutorials for Teachers
Elementary Schools have two videos to help with report cards. The first video is how to enter the information in PowerSchool for the report card. Attached are blank report cards to help teachers follow along with the video (1A). The second video is how to print the report card after the information is entered in Unified Classroom.
