Today is day 1 on the specials calendar.
Today we shall have our PBS "booster" assemblies to remind and review with students and staff PBS expectations and our core values. The program will be very exciting with some surprises along the way. Please remember to bring your den dollars so you can help distribute them to students showing Gibson pride. The program for K-2 students will start at 9:00 and for 3-5 students the program will start at 10:00. Specialists will monitor and take students to program as applicable. (Based on the times it looks like specialists will take first grade students to the gym and remain for the K specials-specialists will have regular class for second graders)
Ron at principal meeting this morning.
PBS has some FANTASTIC RAFFLES this month-bicycles step teams and basketball clinics. The kids will really get excited about these prizes. Please remember to give out plenty of earned den dollars to pump up behavior.

Today is day 4 on the specials calendar.
Classified staff meeting after school
ESL only for Mrs. Neff. Mrs. Alexander and Mrs. Garcia's sub will be in all day training.
1st, 2nd and 3rd grade PLC's today.
School Improvement Team meeting tomorrow.
Mrs. Bigham was pleased with what she she observed last week. She was impressed with the continuity in instruction. Keep up the good work. She will be back on Friday for another visit.
I will begin sharing with everyone their individual attendance profiles. Sometimes we don't keep track of absences for one reason or another. After so many sick day absences, staff are required to provide a doctor's note. Many of you provide doctors' notes anyway-no problem. Please review staff handbook for details.
The PTA has money to provide to grade levels and or committees for activities and or materials. The process is very simple and much quicker than waiting for me to find money or get approval from other sources. The form and explanations are on the website homepage.

We are having a roaring good time ! Please don't forget to acknowledge students and fellow staff members with a Grizzly Roar! We want to share at a few times a week. Thanks to Mrs. Gumbs for the superb Roaring sound effects-GRRRRRRRRROWL !
