Morning!
Faculty meeting today at 3:20 - Let us all reframe our expectation of a 4:00 finish to the meeting! We are implementing a new creative approach to meeting/learning that was gleaned form our work with Liz Parry and EIE, which will benefit our Wednesday afternoons for the remainder of the year.
Remember the statement, "if you are good, we will get out early" implies that the information being presented is not useful. Additionaly, the statement, "I promise to finish by 4pm" implies that seat time is valued more than the quality of collaborative learning.
Be.present
Be.engaged
Be.respectful
For our Classified Employees, the expectation is for you to attend all the faculty meeting and adjust your schedule to reflect a 40 hour work week. 7:45-4:15 is 8.5 hours - the next two days work 7:45-3:30 and the sum is 24 hours in three days.
Picture day for those who missed on October 27th will occur this morning by grade level announcements over the PA system. We will begin at 8:30 with Kindergarten and first grade. Second will follow when they are finished. and we will continue up the grade level ladder until all have been called. We need every student to have their picture taken for our records even if they do not order any copies.
The duty free lunch schedule will be posted on the board and in the shared folder on Friday, after we complete the Thanksgiving lunch event.
I have a magnet meeting today and will be out of the building from 9:30-1:30
Subs:
Rosemary Hazy for Karon Kiger
No sub for Irene Rush - Please keep Irene and her family in your thoughts as her mother has been hospitalized with some intestinal and cardiac complications.
