Welcome back to the New Year!!
Many of you are making adjustments to your daily schedule, interventions, rotations, etc. I would like for everyone to please turn in a hard copy of your daily schedule to Lori by Friday 1/10. It should reflect times you are out to the classroom (PE, band, Library, Book Buddies), interventions, ELD, and anytime you are rotating students. This is helpful for Roe and I when we are walking classrooms but also for office staff when they are trying to get a hold of you. STEP and RSP please also give Lori a copy of the current break/lunch schedule you have for your self and classified. (We are aware that it is not always possible to take lunch and breaks at designated times, but we would like a copy of the ideal schedule)
Attendance-
We are always striving to increase our attendance, as we get back to work in the New Year, I wanted to share an awareness video with you all. If you would like to participate in the Science Experiment in your classroom we will provide the supplies. It is important that we all practice good hygiene, washing our hands throughout the day and keeping Chromebooks and work space sanitized. I will work with Roe to get you all some supplies to help keep germs away and keep kids healthy and in school. This is also a great time to roll out a new or recommit to an old attendance incentive program in your classroom. If you want support with this in the form of ideas or financial support reach out to Roe and I and we can assist.
