Our Classified Staff is Sweet!   (Let’s make it GREAT!)

1.  Each grade level will be responsible for one day of the week to give these 19 wonderful people a little treat or note of thanks in their mailboxes.  It can be a purchased item with a note attached or something free like a card/homemade bookmark/saying.  The important thing is that each day they are recognized for their dedication to our school. 

2.  Thursday:  A Day of Sweets (and Snacks).  Due to the various schedules of our classified staff, I thought it would be great to be able to snack throughout the entire day on appetizer-type foods and sweet treats.  This would allow for people to pop in and out as their schedules allow. 

Here is who is responsible for each day of the week:

    Monday:  Kinder and First and Alyssa
    Tuesday:  2nd and 3rd and Rachel
    Wednesday:  4th and Jason and Traci
    Thursday:  Jill, Donna and Kathy and Tina
    Friday:  Office and Specialists (lib/PE/Mus)
**if i did not assign you a day, please join a day/grade level.  :)

A note from ITC

If you show withdrawn students on your TAC Report Card List...The students should fall off of their TAC Report Card List. However, we are aware of a problem of inactive students showing up on the Grid View in TAC when entering report cards. When the teacher accesses the competency entry by List, the inactive students do not show up. Until we have a resolution from the vendor, the teacher will have to ignore those inactive students when viewing by Grid. If an inactive student is showing up on both the Grid and the List please have the teacher fill out a HelpCenter request with the student ids so we can correct them.

Donations for Math/Reading Night

It’s not too late to donate to the baskets for Math/Reading Night.  Please give them to Rachel.

 

Bus Drills

Our emergency exit drills for the second semester will be held in March.  As a reminder, students will be expected to exit from one of the emergency exits toward the back of the bus. They will be required to sit down before jumping from the door. Our primary focus will be the safety of each student, so the speed in which the students exit will not be a factor.

Our bus drivers will be conducting the drills as they arrive in the AM to drop students off at school. Only students who ride the bus to school will be receiving the information and participating in the drill. The drivers will conduct the drill in a timely manner and the impact with the beginning of school should be minimal.  It would be greatly appreciated if you could have some of your staff outside to support and assist our drivers during the exit drill procedure
