K8 Weekly Memo

It's our Leap Year week!  Here are some fun links and activities:





Points of Interest


Finding the Joy of Reading - Action Needed

Thank you for making the commitment to provide DEAR reading time to our students.  Please be sure to hand out the Caught You Reading Tickets. We will be wrapping up our Reading campaign with Read Across America week, March 4-7th.


PLC @ Work - Action Needed

We are currently working on making all our PLC @ Work resources available online for staff and parents to access. These resources make up our Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum.


This Tuesday's PLC time is dedicated to reviewing the CFAs. Two weeks ago, we set a goal to give a CFA to your students and use the Data Analysis Tool to document their scores. Then, during the Feb 27th PLC Time, we will collaborate with PLC teams to review classroom data. Please ensure that your Data Analysis tool is completely filled out.


Please note that the Data Analysis Tool can be copied and revised to meet your team's needs. At the bottom of this email is an example that we reviewed two weeks ago.


Character Strong/Purposeful People

This is our final week with the character trait of Honesty.  Please be sure to complete your weekly lesson and find ways to weave Honesty into your classroom discussions.  


Weekly Memo

In your weekly communications, please remind your families that we will have a regular school day on March 22.  This is the makeup day from an earlier school closure. 


School Safety: Fire Drill and Survey - Action Needed

We will have a non-scheduled fire drill this week.  I'll swing into the primary grades to let them know the time on Wednesday. Please be sure to have your current roster in your emergency bag.  


Please thoroughly complete the safety survey, which will be sent out this week.  


MS Charger Assembly - Action Needed

This Thursday is our MS Charger Assembly at 8:15 AM.  Please take attendance and walk over to the auditorium as quickly as possible.  I want to start right at 8:15 so that students can be released to their nutrition break on time.
