#BES1team1dream Levels Up for ALL kids!!!
Happy Friday Eve!!!!
THANK YOU for an OUTSTANDING week of learning! Who needs a nap?!?! I know I will be making time for that this weekend!! Whew!!
I'm going to try to keep it short this week......I know you must be on information overload. Take it one day at a time!! We've got this!!!
FYI---We will be making time for Special Services follow-up conversations after school gets started. I know how difficult it is to receive all of that information without having a face to match with it. Even knowing what you now know about students, please remember how important it is to give each one of them a fresh start. Everyone deserves a clean slate.
Another FYI-- April will be updating the Meet the Teacher Flyer with new grade level information session times. Please help me by sharing this information with parents. I do think having these sessions at different times will help the parking situation. YAY!! Thank you all for doing this!! The parents LOVE it!!!
I can't thank you enough for your positivity, your engagement, and ALL IN attitude this week!! I'm still a believer that this school year WILL be the BESt year in Birmingham's history!!! Excited to see that vision come to life!!!!
Tomorrow is Anthony Muhammad Day!!! I'm just a little bit excited about this!!! HE IS AWESOME!!!!
