Cloverdale Elementary News
Week Of November 9, 2020
Principal's Den
I hope you are all healthy and staying safe. Our teachers and staff have been working hard in preparing our classrooms for a possible return to school. We are all excited at the prospect of being able to see you all soon. Report cards are being mailed and you will be receiving them soon. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your child's teacher.
This week we continue with our virtual recesses. You can access these at your designated time through Clever. I like to join the virtual recesses along with Ms. Dahlman. We are having our monthly virtual recognition event this Friday. All of our students that have earned the student of the month, AVID, and PBIS awards for the month of October will be invited to a special recognition and activity in their honor.
This Wednesday we pay our respects to all of our servicewomen and men who have served in our armed forces. November 11 is Veterans Day and we will not have classes this day. As always, if we can be of any assistance please do not hesitate to contact us.
Shoutout to Trevor Gorman, a first grade student in Ms. Scranton's class for being selected as our Shining Brighter student of the week for the week of October 26th. Our students are outstanding and there were many that were nominated by their teachers for this special recognition and I will continue to recognize them during our morning announcements.
This week we will continue to distribute a special art kit to all of our students during Grab n Go lunch. We will also have the practice book packets available during that time.
Thank you,
At Cloverdale we strive to be Leaders by Example. As I mention to our students during announcements, this means that we always try to do the right thing even when no one is looking.
As part of our school's Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support (PBIS), we also learn to ROAR. This is a matrix that exemplifies our core values of being Respectful, Organized, Accountable, and Responsible.
We also know that a FAIL is only a First Attempt in Learning and that we learn best from our mistakes. When someone makes a mistake we say "It's Cool!"
Sincerely,
Genaro García
