Learning Targets
Oriole Way
Next week we will review the list and draw names for prizes!
PLC teams
Please also make sure as a team you are reviewing STAR data-all staff have a login, and also share strategies you are using to support student achievement. It is also a good time as a group to make phone calls home to shared students who are struggling to encourage them to work with you, stay after, request an accommodation, etc.
ACT
Make up days are March 15-16.
If anyone is interested I am attending the ACT state conference in Madison on February 9th. Please let me know asap.
Attendance
I have shared a list of students who are close to/exceeded their ten days. If you have questions on any of them please let me know.
