Sipley School Weekly Howl
Monday, October 30, 2017
If I accept you as you are, I will make you worse; However if I treat you as though you are what you are capable of becoming, I help you become that.
Thanks For Being So Flexible
I just want to say thank you for everyone's flexibility. I feel bad for the amount of Title I support I have taken away from students and I am going to try really hard not to allow that to happen. I will do what I can to take classes and do so if it doesn't take away from my responsibilities as principal. Others are going to have to be flexible and jump in. Ben, Miguel, Nicole, Ryan, Amy, Erin, Kim, Brianne and myself will be used. Michelle and Mary will be used in a real pinch.
Teaching and Reteaching Behavior
CHAMPs
Structure your classroom for success
Teach expectations
Observe student behavior
Interact positively
Correct fluently
The expectation is that CHAMPs is implemented building wide by the end of January, giving staff time to finish reading the book and adding the proper visuals in the classroom.
