Make Plans NOW to Attend!
It's time for our EOY Planning Faculty Meeting on Monday, May 6th. This is the meeting where we talk about all of the end of year requirements for assessments as well as hand out your EOY checklists. Please do your best to attend this meeting so you get all the important deets!
Compliance Courses Completed
Please make sure you are working on your annual compliance courses. These will be part of your end of year sign off checklist. They don't take very long to complete for returning staff. See the staff newsletter if you're not certain which ones are required.
Paraprofessional staff must complete this "on the clock", so make sure you are working on them during the day. If you need help figuring out how to fit this in, come see me. :-)
Dee Out next week
I will be out on Thursday and Friday (Apr 25/26).... I wish I was going to be tanning (or sunburning) on the beach, but unfortunately I'm having some super fun oral surgery! yeehaw! I can be reached by text or email on those days, if needed, but I'm sure there is NOTHING that the Amazing SANDRA CAN'T HANDLE!!!
Lunch Room Issues
Lunch room behavior is out of control again. On Thursday, I went in and asked Mr. Teague to get them quiet so I could talk to them. I discussed the fact that there had already been 4 spills and that they needed to settle down and behave appropriately. Immediately after this conversation, there was another large spill and another student throwing his fruit cup up in the air and catching it. I will be asking lunch monitors to let you know if your class needs assigned seats for a while. I will address this on announcements again Monday, but please remind them right before lunch as you are lining up.
Bathrooms....Again!
We have had 2 more artists on bathroom walls again. We are going to need to start scanning out so we can try to find the culprit. We are going to start with 3rd, 4th and 5th graders as the writing is very high on the walls where a smaller child could not reach. I'll put the scan codes in your boxes. Please post near your doors and explain that they will log out and back in for restroom breaks.
Summatives
Please don't forget to sign up for a summative if you have not already done so. Thanks!!!
Tomorrow....
Wear JEANS tomorrow if you have read this whole darn thing before school on Monday morning!!
