This and That
Positive Parent Contacts
Be sure to be making your positive parent phone calls, notes home, emails, etc... These proactive phone calls can help you learn about your students and help build trust between parents and school.
SMART Board Filters
Clean at least once a week! If you have not cleaned them yet - do so! If you don't know how - ask Jen Bearden for help!
PGPs
Plans were due Friday! If you did not get yours submitted, please do so ASAP! I'll be catching individuals to talk this week for baseline scores - be thinking where you would score yourself!
Adult Restrooms
Keep the adult restrooms shut and locked at all times!
Grades in Infinite Campus
Put in grades twice a month (approximately the 15th and 30th).
iReady Data Chat
Data Chat sheets were copied and placed in mailboxes. Print your reports and be ready to talk about your students on Tuesday, October 1! We will look at assigning licenses for either reading or math at that time.
Belair School Improvement Goals
Increase the number of students on or above grade level in math, according to the iReady assessment, from 66% to 75% at the end of the year.
Decrease the number of major office referrals by using SAEBRS data to identify students for social, emotional, or other at risk factors, and providing interventions appropriate for those students.
