Everyone always does a great job showing what a wonderful school we have. Having a good first impression will go a long way to having a successful school year.
Committee assignments will be given out by the end of the week. It is important to distribute leadership and responsibility;many hands make the load lighter.
Please review the staff development offerings for Thursday and Friday. Sign up for any trainings on line. If you do not have a scheduled staff development, staff workday is 8:00-3:30. Classified staff will need to report to school.
QRI (3-5) and DIBELS (K-2) training will continue Monday.
There was some question about using furlough time. If you think you have furlough time, please let me know and how much time you think you have. I will check against my records. Furlough time cannot be used before Monday.
Please review the staff handbook for important changes. We will review changes throughout the year.
Daily schedules should be turned in by August 28. I will provide the grade level schedules from last year to the grade chairs. As a team, use the master schedule and lunch schedule and create common grade level daily schedules. Keep in mind the 90 minute communication block and minimum 60 minute block and 30 minute Science block. Writing can be incorporated into communication. It does not have to be 60 minutes. Have a great open house.
