What It's All About
Please take a moment to watch the 2.5 minute video above. It's not the hokey pokey, but it is what education is all about.
New doors, locking, unlocking, etc.
The time is drawing near for our new doors (four doors from the vestibule to the hall and both doors to the office) to be locked and in working order. This means several changes in how you get in the building. I don't have all of the information yet, but wanted you to expect a change in locking/unlocking and entry for staff. Please stay tuned and be ready to be flexible as it is going to feel very unfamiliar at first. More info to come.
Indoor Recess Updates
In an effort to decompress the waiting time in the hallway for our students, we'd like to try to have them line up and be seated outside their classroom doors for the 10 or so minutes before you are done dining.
Melissa and I will escort 1st-4th graders from the cafe to their classroom hallways. Kindergarten will be escorted by Toby and Laura.
Thanks, all.
