Crazy Doc's rant and raves...
Hopefully everyone had a wonderful Halloween and skipped the scale this morning! I look forward to our learning on Tuesday. You will have some time in your classroom as well. Please avoid the building this weekend, it is time for the usual beginning of the month exorcism!
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
Quick hits:
- As you start to put your calendar together for the year, please avoid field trips on Wednesday (Wings), Thursday, and Friday.
- Please keep all tardy passes and send them home quarterly with the report card envelopes.
Teacher Spotlight
Leslie Earls- For all the hard work she put into the pumpkin contest. It was a such a great opportunity for students to get to create something with their families at home. The students LOVED it and the staff loved looking at all the clever ideas and getting to vote for their favorite! Leslie really went above and beyond! Thanks Leslie!
Do you have a idea for a person in the spotlight? Please let me know.
On-Going Reminders
- If you send a student to the focus room please do so with one of the tickets Casey has provided, that way she knows why they are there. If they do not have a ticket they will be sent back to class.
- Please follow the nurse's stoplight schedule.
- If you send a student to the office please make sure they have a pass.
- Please make sure you are not sending large printing jobs to the basic printers, please send these to the copiers.
- Lunch counts and attendance need to be entered by 9:30, or Terri will start calling.
Stoke Your Optimism to Stay on Top
- Own your problems. We all have them. How are you finding ways to change the things you can change?
- Accept reality. Try not to get too focused on fixing things you cannot influence or change.
- Don't bury negative thoughts. We all have them, and instead of ignoring them, try seeing them as reminders of obstacles to overcome.
- Look for solutions. As the old adage goes, "if at first you don't succeed, try, try again." It's easy to get frustrated when things don't go the way we expect them to. Try reaching out to those you trust for different perspectives and ideas.
