In Case You Missed It:
SLMS staff members that do not use the ABE system when you are absent should now include Tina Cameron on the email or text when you are absent. This will help her to know who is out and ensure paperwork is filled out.
Thank you to all that provided time for students to fill out the student survey last week. We had 80% (768) of our children participate. Here is a breakdown of how they feel:
They would change things like:
- Walking on the P&G
- Food
- More brain breaks
- Being able to chew gum
- Dress code
- Phones allowed
- But MOST said they would change NOTHING
- Supported by staff
- Like our school
- Positive in talking about our school to new people
- We have high expectations.
Ninety percent of those surveyed have at least one person on staff they could confide in. And the greatest piece of information that I learned from the survey was that ALL staff members were selected as being a person that a child feels comfortable confiding in if they had a problem. THANK YOU! My heart is full!
Couple of Changes for Next Week:
- College Jean Day will be Wednesday (instead of Monday).
- Red and Pink Jean Day will be Thursday. Ashley Inman's Sprinkle will be Thursday, too.
- Purple and Gold Jean Day will be Friday (normal).
