An Educator's Quote for the Week...
Titan-of-the-Week & Minnie Howie Roaming Gnome Award
Titan of the Week:
Due to the missed snow days Titan of the Week will return next week.
The Titan of the Week Premium Parking Spot is up for grabs this week. First come first serve! :)
How can you get the Titan of the Week Upper Lot Award? It is easy! Just wear Titan Gear or college wear on Fridays and your name will be entered into a drawing that morning. Each week in Ms Wood's Week-At-Glance the next week's winner will be announced.

Brought to you by Titans Succeed / Renaissance Committee in appreciation of all that you do to make this a great place to work and learn.
Winter Coat Drive!!!!
In case you've been cleaning out your closets, please consider donating a coat, gloves, or hat to one of our students. I know we have all seen far too many kiddos wearing only hoodies in the 20 degree weather.

Feb. 3rd: WIDA Testing Begins
Accountability has revised the WIDA testing window. Please see my email for the WIDA Testing Calendar. Although I do not think we will need everyday for testing due to the new online test and the new guidelines for grouping students, I still over scheduled just in case there are any issues. Please let me know if you have any concerns or questions.
Thank you,
Kelly

Easy holiday shopping. Students can begin buying Tuesday, so make sure to place your order Tuesday because stock runs out. All orders will be ready by the next open day of the store, payment due upon pickup.
Monthly Fire Drills
Please remember the following during each drill...
Please make sure you instruct all of you classes on the procedures and etiquette for fire drills.
Please remember to lead your class out of the room for the fire drill. Once the
alarm sounds, give quick and concise instructions, name a student to close the door and lead students to the field.
Upon re-entry of the building, instruct students to go directly to the class of origin regardless of time and change of periods (attendance should be taken when the entire class has returned to the classroom). In the event of a period change during a drill or an actual emergency, the administrative team will release students via the PA to their next class.
Attendance must be taken before, during and after drills and/or emergency situations to ensure all students whereabouts and safety.
