Wednesday MM - June 1st

EOG - ELA Today!

Let's all breathe and know that we are prepared.  If we want to reduce stress we must demonstrate confidence in ourselves and ALL our students.  Remember that courage is not the absence of fear, it IS THE WILLINGNESS TO TAKE ACTION IN SPITE OF FEAR. 

Our CREW session this afternoon extends our journey to build and sustain relational trust throughout our faculty.  A request from our CREW leaders.
  • remind everyone to think of something positive (a memory, compliment, etc.) about the crew member they selected from our snowball fight. We will be sharing these at the end of our session on Wednesday! 
No subs today - Lots of guests as Proctors!

Tuesday MM - May 31st

Good Morning!

Two make-up settings for the Science test
  • Janet to administer & Doris to proctor in Kathy's office on the stage
  • Anna to administer & Diana to proctor in Mobile #40   
Kathy and I tried to affect the least amount of spaces so people can still use the side playground on the one side of the school.  I'll be here by 7:30, please come find me on the stage like a normal testing day so I can get appropriate information to you.  Let me know if you have any questions or concerns!  Thanks so much, Kristen Turner.

EOG administration on Tuesday and Wednesday will require participation and cooperation from every staff member.  

  • It is SO IMPORTANT to get off to a good start, so please arrive on campus by 7:30!
  • Test material distribution will not interfere with our care and love shown to the students as the enter the building at 7:50
  • We will follow the schedule as posted in the blog documents folder for Specials, Recess and Lunch 
  • Remember to remove the school phone from the hook and leave your cellular device in the printing cubicles located in my office

Thursday MM - May 26th

Good Morning!

Last day of PLT coverage today.  

Thanks for the support at the meeting yesterday.  How about a quick challenge for today, when speaking ONLY use the the following pronouns;

  • First Person Singular - I, Me, Mine & My 
  • First Person Plural - We, Us, Ours & Our
I will monitor my usage and we can hold each other accountable without using 2nd or 3rd person.

I am doing a Science Testing Room walk from 8:30-10:00 to remove prohibited items from the walls.  

We made great progress with Dee Duncan today.  The work plan is in progress and will be the focus of our work on Wednesday, June 15th.
