TK-2 Campus Tours - Monday, March 21 - 8:45-9:45
College Day - Wednesday, March 23 - 1:00 Dismissal
TK-2 - Lunch Picnic - Please encourage your students to bring blankets for the grab and go picnic on Wednesday. You will still walk students out at 12:30 to get their lunches. Then as a class you can head to the main yard for a school-wide picnic! Since Stoner ES is on Spring Break, the campus is ours!
3-5 - Lunches can be picked up at 12:30 and students are to remain in the lunch area until 12:55. I recommend having students pack up, go eat and then return to class to quickly get their backpacks before dismissal. Please supervise your students in the lunch area during this time.
6-8 - Lunches will be picked up after the College Day ceremony at 1:00, grab and go style as usual.
Thank you to the College Day Committee (and Mr. Draeger's wife, the ultimate "recruiter" for recruiters!) for getting this awesome day organized!!

Buczek's Tentative Schedule
Instructional Focus - Cognitive Level of Student Learning Experiences (3.2B)
1) Are learning experiences differentiated to meet the needs of all learners?
2) Have you addressed the necessary accommodations needed to meet the needs of students with special needs ? (Are we in compliance for those specifically with IEPs?)
3) Do these experiences align to the objective/standard?
Supervision Reminder
We are still looking for extra help on the yard (major shout-out to those of you who have already volunteered!) A few reminders for when you're on watch:
- Be super VISIBLE (walk around, stay standing, avoid being hidden by students coming to speak to you)
- Be super VIGILANT (really look around, walk over to groups of students that are huddled in the far corners of the yard, walk past the bathrooms several times, and please no cell phone use during supervision).
