"Quote of the Week"
All In!
At the beginning of the year, we spoke about the three (3) Best Practices at Meadowbrook Middle School, Standards Alignment, Assessment and Formative Feedback, and Small Group Instruction. The FWISD Learning Model is here to stay and many of the teachers in the district will receive coaching on how to implement the best practices in the classroom. Please do not hesitate to ask for assistance with our best practices and always inform the admin team when you have a new and creative lesson for us to observe. I want to encourage everyone to take the risk and try new ways to engage and instruct our students.

Allergic 2 Average
In our quest to be allergic to average we must not go back into old ways. The expectation is for teachers to be at their doors during the passing periods, actively pushing and moving students to class, and to have the bell ringers ready for the student prior to the tardy bell. I asked that we do not line our students in the hallways, instead, let them into the class to begin their bell ringer. If the student knows they have work to complete and limited time after the tardy bell it will help clear the halls. The administration would ask for all teachers to be on duty by 9:05 am and to remember that we have a duty after school to at least 4:35. Many of you are here early every day and you do not leave until late and your efforts and dedication are greatly appreciated by the students and the administration. Please do all that we can to maintain order in our halls and in the schools. As always do not hesitate to reach out to the administration for assistance with instruction, discipline and any other situation you may face.
