Morning Minute for September 20th

 

  • Thank you for your work today on the Lock Out Drill. In my ten years doing this, I will see this was the smoothest one ever. You all took it seriously and students did as well. I know the timing wasn't the best, but our vigilance is needed. Please send any feedback to Leah or Shannon as we will be reviewing this at our Safety Team meeting Friday. 
  • 6th Grade teachers met for our first KidChat today. We did get some feedback that we need to speed things up. We will be working on streamlining this process and do some work for 7th Grade's meeting next week. 
  • I will be out today (Thursday) for a series of appointments and to help my daughter take care last minute items that need to be done in person, on week days, before she heads off for ten months of humanitarian work. I will be out Tuesday morning to see her off, but am planning on returning later in the day...I may be crying.
  • We want to know a little more information about our staff. Please take a look and fill out this form: My Favorites . ERRORS HAVE BEEN FIXED. 
  • Kelly in the health room has a few red fanny packs available for staff if they would like one. They have first aid items, gloves...items like that. There is also a CPR mouth shield attached too. Please let her know if you would like one. As a reminder she is located in the library. 

  • Hello Teachers! We are super excited to offer High Dosage Tutoring (HDT) again this year!

Nightly News for Wednesday the 9th

Tomorrow is what may be our last Apple Harvest. This event begins at 5:00 and runs until 7:00. Valerie, Elin and Ron have spent time organizing and we are hoping for a great turn out. All staff are welcome to come and support!  We are looking for a paper cutter. Daniela currently has one in the art room that is hardly functioning. It needs to be retired. I am reaching out in hopes of finding one in the building that is stuffed in a closet or drawer somewhere and could be given to our art room for daily use before  we purchase a new one. Please let her, or me know if you have one you are willing to part with.  Just an FYI I was in meetings pretty much all day. I am behind in responding to emails and will work on this tomorrow as I can and over the weekend.
