Staff:
We are heading into week #7. I can’t believe the time is flying by so quickly. For you planning purposes, please review the format for the Professional Development Day, which will be held this upcoming Friday. Additionally for your planning purposes, all goals and Ed Plans will be due by Thursday, October 10th. Please add you goals to your TeachPoint account and I will be reviewing them and signing off. I will reach out to you if something needs adjusted. Finally, Peter and I will be starting classroom visits this week. We are both looking forward to taking part in the excellence that is going on throughout the building.
Wishing everyone a great week with your students!
Dean W. Packard
