Finances and field trips-Please turn in field trip money daily by placing it in the lock box outside Mrs. Sawyer's office. Do not put it in any file cabinets or hand it to her personally.

Also maintain a cash sheet listed each child and the amount they have paid towards the trip. Maintain this sheet in lieu of handing out receiets for amounts less than twenty dollars.
This morning, we will practice with students from several buses in order to improve bus behavior and control. Please wait until those students are called.

Today is day 2 on the specials calendar
5th grade LTM
ESL principal meeting-Ron away right after school
Tutoring starts today in grades 3-5. Please cross check the students who should be in tutoring and confirm they should be staying. Mrs. Wiley is working with Mrs. Stewart to coordinate this process. Either person should be bale to confirm a student's participation.
Staff meeting after school tomorrow for all staff.
Teachers in grades PK-2 need to sign up for planning days BEFORE your planning day and give the registration to Mrs. Sawyer.
Other news/reminders:
McTeacher night at McDonald's on University tomorrow night-please sign and plan to visit for a few minutes.
On weeks that grade levels have planning half-days, No LTM for that grade for that week. LTM will be held on an abbreviated version during planning days.
Our PTA fundraiser will start this Wednesday with info packets going home. We have not done a lot to prep you because everything is the same (company and protocols). The fundraiser will run through the month of October. Instead of an assembly or two (considering our size), we will show a video that explains the program-time TBA.
Our annual United Way fundraiser will start in a few days. The United Way directly impacts many of our families. Gibson staff members have always been generous-please help in continuing that tradition of giving.
PBS corner-
Our school was designated as a Green Ribbon school for PBIS annual recognition. There will be a statewide recognition of this award at a later time-we will keep you informed. Congratulations for all you do.
The PBIS committee is working to clarify some processes and forms for teachers to help with communication and administrative response. I share an expectation that needs to be in place immediately:
Please do not wait until the third classroom discipline form is filled and the corresponding D-1 is written before making sure the parent is contacted. I have received more than one or two completed discipline forms which indicated no previous contact with parent (either by signature on the form or documentation on the phone log.) At the very least, after the second form(incident on the same form) is written on a child, it should be sent home for signature or a phone call should be made. If the form does not come back or if it comes back unsigned- a phone call must be made-please engage the HS coordinator for help. The PBIS committee is editing any charts to reflect a similar change and will communicate it at a future staff meeting.
