Minnie Howie the Roaming Gnome Award
Goes to.... Mr. Ernest!!!
Ms. Plaza writes... This week's gnome award goes to Mr. Ernest. In addition to serving as the sole social worker for all of Minnie Howard, Mr. Ernest can always be counted on to go out of his way to support students. He not only works with students on issues like attendance, but he also is happy to set up parent conferences and to speak with students regarding grades or other issues. In short, he is a spectacular support for the teachers and students in this building. What is really amazing about Mr. Ernest is that he does all of this with a smile or a joke or two to brighten everyone's day.
Thank you Mr. Ernest for being AWESOME!!!
If you were wondering...
What is the Minnie Howie Roaming Gnome Award?
This award gives us another way to recognize and celebrate each other. Minnie Howie is passed on from person to person each week.
What do you do when you receive the Minnie Howie Roaming Gnome Award?
Prominently display the award in your classroom or office. You can even brag a bit and carry Minnie Howie with you when you travel the building.
When and how do you pass Minnie Howie to the next awesome colleague?
At the end of the week, write up a short celebration blurb in which you name the next awardee and share a few things about him/her that you want to recognize and share. Send the blurb to Ms Wood for her Sunday "Week-at-a-Glance." On Monday morning, deliver Minnie Howie to the awardee.
And the cycle continues...
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.
Ms. Riser
Thank you for organizing the Hidden Figures Field Trip. It was a difficult taks and we had to change dates a few times, but we are STILL a GO! Thank you for sticking to it and your dedication to the students!

In addition, the first lesson, which contains a video clip from Forrest Gump uses the n-word (0:26-0:28). You may choose to pause and skip over this language if you feel it best. If your class finishes the lessons early, you may use additional time to finish the door decorating contest
