Staff Updates
Retention meetings have started to take place…I must be there, so make sure you check my calendar and let me know when the meeting will be. It may be at a conflicting time with another one, so the first one that tells me or schedules it on my calendar is the one who is booked. Thank you!
Progress Reports go home February 8th. Please make sure you are explaining, explaining, and over explaining each student’s progress on progress reports and grade cards. It is much better to OVER explain than to not explain enough. We need to make sure our parents know exactly where their children are and that they know what specific skills they have been working on and what skills they will be working on in the future. If students are struggling in areas, please make sure you are giving tips and strategies for parents to use at home as well. Please make sure the assessment wall is updated by February 9th from any changes made during progress report time.
Our last Professional Development day is coming up soon. I have heard from a few grade levels and teams on things they would like to accomplish that day. As soon as your team has a completed agenda for the afternoon session, send it my way!
It’s time to start thinking about Parent Teacher Conferences. As you are scheduling your retention student’s conferences, please keep me in the loop. I will need to attend these. If you need an example of a parent letter to send home, let me know and I can get you one!
