Monday Memo

Good Monday Morning! 


Thank you for all your hard work last week.  It was exciting to see our high school volleyball team take 6th place at state!  Additionally, the cafeteria supervision team met to review our lunch protocol and work on improving the lunchtime climate.  I enjoyed seeing the various Veterans Day class activities...and of course, the great teaching and learning.  Keep up the great work and let's make this another great week.


Staff Meeting Time

Please be sure to submit the staff meeting time survey. Once we have a selected day, we will start with staff meetings on each month's 1st and 3rd day chosen. This week will be our first staff meeting. Please complete the survey by the end of today: https://forms.gle/P9FknuWK6piohVqU6


Sick Days

Thank you for transitioning to using the blue sheets. Please continue to call or text Tammy and me with unplanned sick days and then submit the blue sheet when you return. If you stay home due to illness, we need to make sure to follow the Symptom Decision Tree protocol. Please see the link below. Chanel and Sheri will help navigate the flowchart and can assist with testing.

Parent-Teacher Conferences

Conferences are just around the corner. The office will print and share the progress reports and MAP Student Profile report for you to share with families. The Student Profile report is a MAP report that gives a picture of a student's growth and performance. Of course, this will only be available to students who completed the MAP testing. I have shared this report with several parents and they have found it exceptionally helpful. Please take a look at a sample report: https://dpdol.nwea.org/public/growth/GR_SampleStudentProfile.pdf 


There will be additional information that will need to be shared with families. We will discuss conferences at our staff meeting this week. 


Cafeteria 

Thank you to everyone who is helping in the cafeteria at lunch.  The new routine and setup are really working well.  Would you please help our students be more successful in the cafeteria by pausing at the front doors to gain students' composure and help focus students before entering the cafeteria? This small act is really helping.   It has been exceptionally helpful having the classroom teachers pick up their class at the end of lunch too!  Again, thank you to everyone for helping.
