DIBELS reassessment for high risk students-October 23
There should be two workshops listed for the Report card workshop-9:00 and 3:15. K-1 teachers should sign up for the 9:00 session and 2-5 teachers should sign up for the 3:15 session. Don't worry, though-no matter which session you sign up for you will get credit for it when attendance is taken.
3-5 teachers, please secure a half day sub for November 9 in order to attend the mandatory Classscapes training. Do not schedule any conflicting appointments and plan to stay the entire time. The training is from 12:00-until 3:30. Get your sub from 11:30-3:30.
PLC meetings will take place Mondays and Wednesdays starting in the last week of the month. I will share with grade levels the times for meetings. The same expectations apply-assistants will partner with teachers to provide the additional 20 minutes for coverage.
