Morning Minute for December 21st

  • Thank you for your patience with lunch today. I really left ample time for pickup. Rookie tip DO NOT GO TO COSTCO at 12:00 on a weekday. There were many lollygaggers and parking was non existent (It's the holiday's I get it). To add to the trip a was behind a car that stopped went the red lights started flashing for the train. In my world this means hit the gas so we don't get stuck behind said train. I sat behind a train for ten minutes and then on the freeway there was an accident...you know typical crazy pre-holiday frenzy stuff. I went into the lunchroom and spent time with the kids and did some perspective taking. All is well. Hopefully an extra ten minutes of lunch for those impacted helped. On to Thursday!
  • We had 93 students absent today. About 1/3 or our kids were out for all day or at least part of the day. We shall see what tomorrow brings. We are down four subs without coverage as of 4:30 this afternoon (Wednesday). I have emailed out people about coverage for tomorrow. 

Here is the schedule for today (tomorrow if you read this at night):

Duties may include hall coverage/supervision and/or outside recess coverage. Group A you will be more likely to go outside for recess coverage. 

  • Attention: If your current classroom will be closed due to construction please bring your bucket to the auditorium and place it in the back row (north side closet to office). This would be: Mitchell, B. Carpenter, Coggins, Steeves, Wickstrom, Smith, Cooper, Williams. 
  • Special shout out to Elin Wickstrom for coming up with a great map to share with students. I have asked the project managers for this, but like us they are slammed. Elin I appreciate your take charge attitude. This will be helpful. I will work on figuring out how to upload said document tomorrow. 
  • Regina and Brenda worked for the past few days to turn in a grant application to provide us with a continued partnership and funding through VILS. Fingers crossed. They were definitely under a time crunch and we hope it pans out. 
  • No word on classrooms that we can begin to move into. I will be checking room status out tomorrow morning (Thursday), but had to take care of several things this evening. 
  • I have some Carnival info and messaging to get out this evening or tomorrow. Sorry to be last minute, but we have been hopping. Deep breath we are almost there and things will happen.

Morning Minute for June 4th

The checklist for end of year wasn't accessible earlier, it should be good to go now.  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SwpXsrFsGdNKllh09q0P_gW0JdjqomW9/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=117829890836834948640&rtpof=true&sd=true Natalia and Gustavo will be out tomorrow with a large number of our ESL students (see list below) for  a field trip. Natalie and Naz will also be attending to support.  Please be aware we made some shifts for next week. Monday our performing arts team (Joel and Bobbi) will be working with students periods 1-4. More info to come. Tuesday we will be on the OSAS testing schedule. Students will use the time identified for testing for WIN time.

Morning Minute for June 11th

We will be on a PM Assembly schedule tomorrow, Tuesday the 11th. This is a shift from our original plans. I sent an email out earlier this afternoon to let everyone know we will be canceling the building wide WIN time. We did not have much entered in the spreadsheet designed to determine where students should be receiving support. My apologies to those of you who did make efforts to make this happen.  We will be reviewing what is in the spreadsheet and may be able to pull students who need a quiet space to catch up on things. If you have any questions in regards to this please feel free to direct them to me. We will have assigned seating for tomorrow's assembly. We will dismiss classes using the intercom. We will begin releasing classes around 2:40. Students should leave their backpacks/belongings in classrooms. To my knowledge there are no groups being pulled out tomorrow. The only exception would be those who need to get work done as a result of cancelled WIN time.  I have a...

Our hope is grade level teams find a morning to touch base about last day of school plans and get things firmed up.  Please note that in the event we have unfilled sub positions this week we may ask staff to cover during their PLC period as this is admin directed time. We hope this is not the...
