Staff Stuff
Thank you for your active participation in the district-wide PD day. I enjoyed visiting all of our departments meeting here at Arroyo and listening in on a number of engaging discussions. It was gratifying to see all of you take full advantage of this time. I hope you found it beneficial and I look forward to seeing the fruits of your labor in classrooms in the future. Thanks for all your hard work!
As you know, today marks the last day of the first quarter progress reporting period. Grades are due Monday the 17th at noon and parents will be able to access them through IC Tuesday the 18th after 3. Remember to indicate if students are in danger of failing. This grading period will also help us identify students who may benefit from after school English and Math intervention, which we will be starting in the near future. I appreciate all of the work you do in keeping IC updated and in reaching out to parents when students struggle. Thank you!
The Hart District is hosting 2018-19's first Parent and Student Empowerment (PASE) evening Thursday September 20th, 6:30 pm at Rio Norte. The focus of the presentation is Every Life Matters: Preventing Suicide in Teens and Children. Unfortunately, this has become an increasing concern in our community. Here is a link to a flyer with more information: PASE Suicide Prevention 092018.docx
Next Friday, September 21, is Tie Dye Day. If you're adventurous, here's a link on how to make your own tie dye shirt: https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-tie-dye-an-old-white-shirt-or-a-new-shirt-/ That Friday is also staff picture day -- we will take the picture right after school. Feel free to wear a tie dye shirt or a staff shirt for the picture.
We are halfway through the first quarter. Thank you for all that you do for our students and have a great weekend!
