Last Magers Memo
The window for report cards is open and will close on May 18th at 8:00 a.m. This is a district-wide date, so please make sure you have your grades entered by the end of the day on the 17th. Melba will print report cards as soon as her reports are run. Report cards go home on the last day of school. Please hold report cards if students have an unpaid library charge.
Please don't forget to add your EOY grades to this spreadsheet prior to leaving for summer break.
Monday, May 21st is device collection day. Please read the details below:
Christen will be at Sequiota on May 17th to present the following to you from 8:20-8:40 in the morning in the library. Christen can walk you through the process and answer any questions you may have. The information is below:
- Here is the Parent Letter that you may send home with students to let their parents know when devices will be collected. Last year we sent it home a week before and the night before collection. (Principal only)
- Device Collection Information-Teacher Copy
- Device Collection Information-Student Copy (teachers should share this information with students prior to the day of collection)
- Collection Website (This is the website that teachers will use to collect student devices. They will login with their ID number. Once logged in, they can watch the video tutorial on how to use the collection website.)
From the Foundation for Springfield Public Schools
The 2018-21019 Back to School Grant Program is now open and receiving applications online on our website at https://www.supportsps.org/2018-back-school-grant-application/
Last year, the Foundation gave out approximately $276,000 to fund more than 95, Back to School grant projects! This year, we hope to raise even more dollars to make funding a higher number of much-needed, Back to School grant projects possible.
The deadline for submitting 2018-2019 Back to School grant applications is June 14, 2018.
We hope that the availability of the online application form will be helpful to you in submitting your Back to School grant projects. While we are using the most up-to-date technology available to us for submitting and tracking projects, it would still be wise for you to save a hard or soft copy of your application, just to have that extra copy on hand. A little bit of insurance.
The categories have remained the same as last year, with one exception. We have eliminated Professional Development because timing for your proposal submissions and the awarding of the grant money wasn’t in sync with most of the professional development opportunities available to you. We will be offering grants for Professional Development later in the year. More to come on that.
Categories available for your grants again this year are as follows:
Student Experience
Modern Learning Environment
Classroom Projects
Community Engagement
More info and details on project requirements and the application are on the website. We will be holding a grant writing workshop at our office sometime in the next few weeks and will keep you posted on that. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me by email at planderson@spsmail.org or phone the office at 417.523.0144.
Thank you for your dedication to making learning in your classrooms for your students THE BEST possible! YOU are awesome. The Foundation for SPS and our generous donors appreciate you and want to help you to make wonderful things happen in your classrooms again in the 2018-2019 school year!
Sincerely,
Pamela
